Origin and history

The building, located at 77 rue Quincampoix, in the 3rd arrondissement of Paris, is a 17th century building. It was classified as a Historical Monument, with a specific protection for its façade and roof on street, by order of 12 April 1974. This building illustrates the Parisian civil architecture of this period, marked by facades often soberly decorated but structured according to strict aesthetic codes.

The rue Quincampoix, located in the Marais district, is known for its history linked to the financial and commercial boom of Paris under the Ancien Régime. In the 17th century, this area was a place of residence for the rising bourgeoisie and artisans, while sheltering dynamic commercial activities. The buildings of this period reflect this duality between housing and work space, typical of the central neighbourhoods of the period.
