Origin and history

The building located at 57 rue Quincampoix in the 4th arrondissement of Paris is a 16th century building. It has been listed in the Inventory of Historic Monuments since 1974, with a specific protection on its facade and roof on street. This building illustrates the civil architecture of the Paris Renaissance, a period marked by urban and artistic renewal in the capital.

The location of this building in the historic Marais district reflects the importance of this area since the Middle Ages. In modern times, the 4th arrondissement was a place of residence for bourgeois and artisans, as well as a centre for commercial activities. The buildings of this period served both as housing, workshop and sometimes as a place of sale, thus integrating the economic and social functions of the city.

The protection of the façade and roof in 1974 underscores the heritage value of this building.
