Origin and history

The building located at 14 rue Quincampoix, in the 4th arrondissement of Paris, is a historic monument whose protected elements include the facade and roof on street, as well as the front and roof on courtyard, and the interior staircase with its ramp. These protections were formalized by a registration order dated 12 April 1974. The building thus illustrates the importance attached to the preservation of the Parisian architectural heritage, especially in a neighbourhood full of history such as the Marais, where medieval heritage and transformations of modern times are mixed.

The location of this building, specified as "a priori satisfactory" according to the criteria of the Mérimée base, makes it a witness of Parisian urban planning. The rue Quincampoix, known for its role in the financial and artisanal history of Paris, houses several remarkable buildings. Although the available sources do not detail its specific history, its ranking reflects a desire to preserve the physical traces of the architectural and social evolutions of the capital.

The absence of information on its current use (visit, rental, etc.) limits the understanding of its contemporary vocation, but its status as a historical monument guarantees its sustainability.
