Origin and history
The building located at 2-4 rue de la Chaussée-d的Antin and 38 boulevard des Italiens, in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, dates from the 4th quarter of the 18th century. It is distinguished by its typical architecture of this period, with a monumental door and facades on streets that have been the subject of successive protections. The door, including its vantals, was inscribed in the Historical Monuments by order of 19 October 1927, while the corresponding facades and roofs were protected on 30 December 1977.
The composer Gioachino Rossini, famous for his operas like The Barbier of Seville, lived there from 1857, marking the cultural history of this place. The building, now owned by a private company, retains remarkable architectural features, although its precise location is considered fair (note 5/10) according to available sources. No information is provided on its current accessibility (visits, rentals, etc.).
The Mérimée base lists this building under Insee code 75109, confirming its anchoring in the Parisian heritage. Monumentum's data and internal archives highlight its historical interest, linked to both its architectural style and its illustrious occupant. The approximate location, based on GPS coordinates, points towards 4 rue de la Chaussée-d的Antin, although the official address also includes the boulevard des Italiens.
