Origin and history

The building located at 84 rue Quincampoix, in the 3rd arrondissement of Paris, is an iconic 18th-century building. This building, whose facade and roof on the street are protected by a registration order of 12 April 1974, bears witness to the Parisian civil architecture of that time. Its classification as Historic Monument underscores its heritage importance in the historical district of the Marais, known for its rich medieval and classical past.

The location of the building, specified as "passable" (note 5/10) in the databases, corresponds to an address confirmed by the Merimée archives and GPS coordinates. Although little detailed information is available on its specific history, this type of building reflects the growing urbanization of Paris in the 18th century, a period marked by the beautification of the central districts and the emergence of an influential bourgeoisie. The buildings of that time often served as residences for merchants, artisans or nobles, thus participating in the economic and social life of the capital.

Available sources, including Monumentum, indicate that the building does not offer public visits or special services such as room rentals or guest rooms. Its main interest lies in its architecture, representative of the Parisian constructions of the Enlightenment century, and in its integration into the urban fabric of a borough now known for its preserved heritage.
