Origin and history

The building at 152 rue de Flanders, in the 19th arrondissement of Paris, dates from the second half of the 18th century. It illustrates the civil architecture of the Louis XVI period, marked by sober and elegant facades, reflecting the aesthetic canons of this period. Its inscription in the inventory of Historic Monuments in 1982 specifically concerns the facade and roof on street, highlighting their heritage value.

The location of this building, in a neighbourhood then undergoing urban transformation, reflects the expansion of Paris under the Ancien Régime. At that time, private constructions like this often served as residences for the rising bourgeoisie or wealthy artisans. Their preservation today offers an overview of the Parisian habitat before the major upheavals of the nineteenth century.

Available data from the Merimée database and Monumentum indicate that the exact address corresponds to the Insee code 75119, confirming its anchoring in the 19th arrondissement. The accuracy of its location is estimated to be "passible" (note 5/10), while the protected elements are limited to areas visible from the street. No information is provided on its current use or accessibility to the public.
