Origin and history

The house at 3 rue Saint-Louis-en-l'Île in the 4th arrondissement of Paris is a 17th-century building. It is recognized as a Historic Monument, although architectural details or its sponsor are not specified in available sources. Its most remarkable element, a monumental door including its vantals, was officially protected by order of 22 February 1926.

The location of this monument, in the historic district of Île Saint-Louis, makes it a testament to the Parisian urban planning of the Grand Siècle. At that time, Paris experienced a major architectural boom, marked by the construction of private hotels and bourgeois houses. These buildings reflect the influence of classical and baroque styles, as well as the social organization of a capital in the midst of transformation under the impetus of the monarchy and aristocracy.

Practical information on access to the public, such as visits or services offered, is not mentioned in the sources consulted. The accuracy of its geographic location is estimated as fair (note 5/10), which may indicate minor uncertainties about its exact location. The data available are mainly from the Merimée database and the Monumentum platform, without reference to additional archives or in-depth studies.
