Le Marais

Le Marais (English: The Marsh) is a historic district of Paris, France. It was located in the north-east of the city and consisted of the Temple, Marais, and Arsenal sub-districts. One major landmark was the Hôtel de Ville, which was the center of the Jacobin Club's Paris Commune.

Located in the heart of Paris, the district flourished as a fashionable area thanks to the aristocrats who lived there. Even after the nobility abandoned it in the 18th century, Le Marais retained its image as an aristocratic district.

By the French Revolution, the abandoned townhouses were taken up by merchants to form warehouses or workshops while preserving the beautiful homes. As a result, the district came to be inhabited by more modest people who kept shops or practiced craft trades, which in turn gave way to the small factories and semi-industrialized trades of the 19th century.
