Origin and history

The building at 4 rue Caumartin, in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, dates from the 4th quarter of the 18th century. This building, representative of the Parisian civil architecture of the end of the Ancien Régime, was partially protected by a registration order under the Historical Monuments in 1977. Only its facade and roof on street (cadastre AR 26) benefit from this heritage recognition.

The location of the building in a central district of Paris reflects the increasing urbanization of the capital in the 18th century. At that time, report buildings, often built for bourgeois or aristocrats, marked the urban landscape. Their architecture, combining elegance and functionality, met the needs of a growing population, while illustrating the aesthetic codes of the Enlightenment.

Available data from the Merimée database and Monumentum indicate that the exact address corresponds to the Insee code 75109 in the Île-de-France region. The accuracy of its geographic location is estimated as "passible" (note 5/10), without further details of its history or occupants. No information is provided on its access to the public, its current vocation or possible historical characters related to this place.
