Heritage classified

Origin and history

The building located at 67 rue Quincampoix, in the 3rd arrondissement of Paris, is a historical monument whose protection relates specifically to the facade and roof overlooking the street. Its inscription in the inventory of Historical Monuments, formalized by a decree of 12 April 1974, highlights its heritage interest in a district marked by medieval and modern history of Paris. Quincampoix Street, known for its history of financial speculation under the Regency (early 18th century), now houses buildings with various architectures, of which this building represents a preserved example.

The location of the building, although noted as "passable" (level 5/10) in the geographical databases, corresponds to an emblematic address of the Marais, a district where medieval heritage mixes, Renaissance private hotels and more recent constructions. The lack of details about its exact construction period or its architect in available sources limits historical accuracy, but its ranking attests to its value in the Parisian urban landscape. The protected elements (facade and roof) suggest a desire to preserve the architectural harmony of the street, often associated with the economic and cultural effervescence of Paris.
