Origin and history

The building, located at 117 rue Saint-Martin in the 4th arrondissement of Paris, is a 17th-century building. It is part of the architectural heritage of the capital, marked by increasing urbanization under the Old Regime. This type of building reflects the stylistic and functional evolutions of the Parisian houses of the time, often intended for a rising bourgeoisie or wealthy artisans.

Ranked a Historic Monument, this building has been partially protected since April 12, 1974, specifically covering its facade and roof overlooking the street. This official recognition underscores its heritage interest, although the available archives do not specify the details of its construction or any original owners. The location in the Marais, a historic district of Paris, strengthens its anchor in an urban fabric rich in 17th and 18th century buildings.

Current data, notably from the Merimée database and Monumentum, indicate a location accuracy considered "passable" (note 5/10), without providing additional information on its past or present use. The exact address, confirmed by GPS coordinates, corresponds to a sector today dynamic, combining habitat, commerce and tourism. No source mentions opening to the public or special vocation (museum, hotel, etc.).
