Origin and history

The building, located at 73 rue Quincampoix, in the 3rd arrondissement of Paris, is a 17th-century building. This building, typical of the Parisian civil architecture of this period, is distinguished by its facade and roof on street, which were inscribed in the Historical Monuments by order of 12 April 1974. Its location in the Marais, an emblematic district of Paris, reflects the urbanization and architectural evolution of the capital under the Ancien Régime.

The location of this building, specified as "passable" (note 5/10) in the heritage databases, corresponds to the exact address of 73 Quincampoix Street. This area, now known for its dense historical heritage, was in modern times a place of residence for bourgeois and artisans. The buildings of this period were often used both for housing and workshop, illustrating the mix of urban functions prior to neighbourhood specialization.

No additional information is available on owners, architects or specific events related to this building. Sources are limited to the administrative data of the Merimée database and the Creative Commons license for associated photographs. The 1974 protection, however, underlines its heritage importance in the Parisian landscape, where the 17th century facades are rare evidence of this period.
