Origin and history

The building located at 16 rue des Lombards and rue Quincampoix in the 4th arrondissement of Paris is a monument listed in the inventory of Historical Monuments. Its classification specifically concerns facades and roofs on streets, protected by a decree dated 12 April 1984. This building illustrates the typical architecture of this central district of Paris, marked by a dense urban history and successive transformations.

The location of this building, at the crossroads of rue des Lombards and rue Quincampoix, places it in a historic area of Paris, known for its commercial and artisanal activity since the Middle Ages. Quincampoix Street, in particular, is famous for its role in the financial and commercial history of the capital. Although the details of its origin or historical occupants are not specified, its inscription bears witness to its heritage value and its integration into the Parisian urban fabric.

The accuracy of its location is estimated as "passible" (note 5/10), suggesting an approximate geographical identification but sufficient to locate it in the neighbourhood. The data available are mainly from the Merimée database and from internal sources, without any mention of public openings or specific contemporary uses. The absence of detailed information on its construction or transformations limits the understanding of its architectural evolution, but its protected status makes it a notable part of the Parisian heritage.
