Origin and history

The building, located at 5bis, 7 and 9 boulevard des Italiens, in the 2nd arrondissement of Paris, dates from the 3rd quarter of the 19th century. This building, representative of Haussmannian architecture, is part of the urban transformation movement of Paris under the Second Empire. Its facades and roofs on the street were protected by a registration order under the Historic Monuments on August 11, 1975, highlighting their heritage value.

The inscription of this building reflects the importance attached to the preservation of the Parisian architectural heritage, especially for coherent urban ensembles. The precise location, although noted as "passable" (level 5/10), allows to identify its anchor in a historical and dynamic neighborhood.
