Origin and history

The building located at 141 rue Saint-Martin, in the 4th arrondissement of Paris, is a building built in the 1st quarter of the 18th century. It is part of the Parisian architectural heritage of this period, marked by the evolution of styles between classicism and rococo. Its inscription as a Historic Monument in 1974 highlights its heritage interest, particularly in its facade, roof and interior staircase, elements protected by ministerial decree.

The location of this building, in the historic Marais district, reflects the growing urbanization of Paris during the reign of Louis XIV and the Regency. At that time, private hotels and related buildings were growing to house a rising bourgeoisie and a nobility close to power. These buildings illustrate the social and economic transformations of the capital, between aristocratic tradition and urban modernity.

The available data from the Merimée database and Monumentum indicate that the exact address (141 rue Saint-Martin) corresponds to a building whose location accuracy is considered "passable" (note 5/10). No additional information is provided on its original use, its historical owners, or any significant events that would take place there. The 1974 protection aims to preserve representative architectural elements of the early 18th century in Paris.
