Origin and history

The building located at 22 rue du Sentier, in the 2nd arrondissement of Paris, is a building built in the 18th century. It is distinguished by its staircase, protected by an order of inscription under the Historical Monuments dated 2 May 1947. This classification reflects the heritage value of this architectural element, typical of bourgeois constructions of the period.

The location of this building, in a central district of Paris, reflects the urbanization and residential architecture of the eighteenth century, a period marked by the rise of private hotels and report buildings. At that time, the 2nd arrondissement, then in the midst of a transformation, was home to an affluent population as well as artisans and traders. The buildings of this period were often designed to combine functionality and aesthetics, with monumental stairs serving both as traffic and as a symbol of prestige.

Available data, notably from the Merimée database and Monumentum, indicate that the exact address is confirmed by the GPS coordinates and the Insee code of the municipality (75102). The accuracy of the location is estimated as fair (note 5/10), which may indicate minor uncertainties about the exact boundaries of the monument. No additional information is provided on its current use, such as an opening to the public or a conversion to a cultural or residential area.
