Origin and history

The building located at 71 rue Caumartin, in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, is a historic monument whose protection covers the façade on street, including the arcades of the ground floor and the vantals of the entrance gate, as well as the corresponding roof. These architectural elements, characteristic of Parisian urban planning, were inscribed by ministerial decree on 16 July 1984, emphasizing their heritage value and their representativeness for this period.

The building is part of the landscape of the 9th arrondissement, a district marked by intense urbanization in the 19th century, a period of major transformation for Paris under the impetus of Baron Haussmann. The buildings of this period, often with harmonised arcades and facades, reflect the aesthetic and functional standards of Haussmannian architecture. Their preservation allows us to understand the evolution of urban lifestyles and the importance attached to the beautification of the French capital.

The location of the building, specified with average accuracy (level 5 out of 10 according to the Merimée base), corresponds to the registered official address. No additional information is available on its current use, whether it is a public opening, a space rental or a residential vocation.
