Timeline

Origin and history

The building at 32 rue de Châteaudun, in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, was built in the first half of the 19th century. This residential building is part of the urban development of Paris under the monarchy of July and the Second Empire, periods marked by an architectural expansion and a densification of the urban fabric. Its facades and roofs, typical of architectural eclecticism of the period, were protected by a decree of inscription under the title of Historical Monuments on 30 December 1977.

The rue de Châteaudun, located near the Saint-Lazare train station, was a rapidly changing area in the 19th century, attracting a rising bourgeoisie and commercial activities. The buildings of this period often reflect the aesthetic codes of Haussmann's urban planning, although this building slightly precedes the major works of Baron Haussmann. Today, it bears witness to the social and architectural evolution of Paris, between historical heritage and modernity.

The protections applied in 1977 specifically concern facades and roofs on streets, highlighting their heritage value. No information is available on any owners, architects or major events related to this building. Its exact address, 32 rue de Châteaudun (and 29 rue Saint-Lazare), is referenced in the Mérimée base under the code Insee 75109, confirming its anchoring in the 9th arrondissement of Paris.
