The Marais District has been fashionable throughout time and a home to many royals over the centuries. The Royal Palace was located there, and for some time, the Rue Saint-Antoine was the widest thoroughfare in Paris.
At the end of the 19th century, and for sometime during the 20th century, it was a thriving Jewish community.
Victor Hugo also had an apartment there.
All of this and the Bastille still stood to its side.
What an interesting and exciting community!!

The Hotel Sully is the Centre des Monuments Nationaux, and it is here that the body responsible for conservation, restoration, and maintenance of monuments is housed. The Centre also functions as a major state-run publisher that creates guidebooks, children's books, educational materials, and other publications for the general public.
Certainly conservation is something that we, as a society, need to consider.
