Origin and history

The building, located at 27 rue Saint-Georges, in the 9th arrondissement of Paris, is a historic monument whose protection is specific to the facade and roof on street. Its listing in the inventory of Historical Monuments, formalized by a decree of 30 December 1977, highlights its heritage interest in the Parisian urban landscape. No additional information on its history, occupants or architect is available from the sources consulted.

In the 19th and 20th century Paris, buildings of this type, often built during or as a result of major Haussmannian works, reflected the evolution of urban lifestyles. They combined bourgeois housing, shops on the ground floor and sometimes workshops, participating in the densification characteristic of central boroughs. Their preservation today demonstrates the importance attached to the architectural memory of the city, even when precise historical details are lacking.
