Origin and history

The building located at 50-52 rue Notre-Dame-de-Lorette, in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, dates from the 2nd quarter of the 19th century. This building illustrates the civil architecture of this period, marked by increasing urbanization and often neat facades, reflecting the prestige of Paris' central districts. Its inscription as Historic Monument by order of 30 December 1977 specifically concerns the facade on street and the corresponding roof, highlighting their heritage value.

The location of the building, in a borough then undergoing transformation under the Second Empire, is part of a context of modernization of Paris. The buildings of that time often served as bourgeois housing or private hotels, participating in the densification and beautification of the capital. Their preservation today demonstrates the importance attached to this architectural heritage, representative of a pivotal period for the city.

Available data from the Merimée database and Monumentum indicate that the exact address is 50-52 Notre-Dame-de-Lorette Street, although GPS coordinates suggest an approximation to 54 of the same street. This minor discrepance reflects the challenges of precise location in heritage bases, where accuracy is assessed as "passible" (note 5/10).
