History

From Champ-de-Mars
to the Invalides

The arrondissement of French grandeur and bourgeois sweetness of life, the 7th gathers the Eiffel Tower, the Invalides, the National Assembly and the Musée d'Orsay within a Haussmannian setting of rare consistency and quality. It is the favoured arrondissement of embassies, ministries and the most established families in the capital — a quiet, dignified stretch of Paris where the State, the arts and family life coexist beneath some of the city's most beautiful facades.

Quality of life

Elegance
and residential calm

Quality of life in the 7th has no equivalent in Paris: exceptional tranquillity, remarkable cleanliness, high-quality local markets (rue Cler, boulevard de Grenelle), generous green spaces (Champ-de-Mars, Esplanade des Invalides) and extraordinary cultural density (Orsay, Rodin, Armée, Quai Branly). The arrondissement is one of the safest in the capital and a favourite for families with young children.

Neighbourhood life, especially around the rue Cler market, has an authenticity rare in central arrondissements. Cheesemongers, wine merchants, butchers and florists succeed each other along a pedestrian street that embodies on its own the very best of Parisian daily life — a warmth and continuity residents value above almost any other amenity.

Trois anecdotes
du 7th arrondissement

— Anecdote 01

The Eiffel Tower, built for the 1889 World's Fair, was meant to be dismantled at the end of the event. It was its usefulness as a wireless telegraphy antenna that saved it — and notably the reception of the message that led to the arrest of the German spy Mata Hari in 1917.

— Anecdote 02

The Musée d'Orsay, opened in 1986 inside a former railway station, came close to being demolished in the 1970s to make way for a modern hotel. President Pompidou had signed the demolition permit before Valéry Giscard d'Estaing decided to convert the building into a museum — one of the happiest cultural decisions of the twentieth century.

— Anecdote 03

The Hôtel de Matignon, official residence of the Prime Minister, holds the largest private garden in Paris after the Luxembourg: two hectares of formal French gardens and orchards entirely enclosed by high walls, invisible from rue de Varenne.

Our view
The 7th cultivates a discretion that is itself a form of luxury. Its residents do not speak of the Eiffel Tower as a tourist monument — it is simply there, at the end of their street, familiar and luminous in the evening. The rue Cler, with its cheesemongers, florists and traditional wine merchants, is the most elegant and most genuine shopping street in Paris — the one where everyone knows everyone, and where Saturday mornings resemble what life ought always to be.

Interactive map Hover a district
Saint-Thomas-d'Aquin Invalides École-Militaire Gros-Caillou
District 01 Heritage

Saint-Thomas-d'Aquin

Saint-Thomas-d'Aquin is the quarter of the antique dealers and art galleries of the Carré Rive Gauche, that unique cluster of art and antique dealers between the Pont-Royal and rue du Bac. Its private mansions and quiet streets make it one of the most sought-after parts of the 7th, especially among collectors and art lovers.

District 02 Lively

Invalides

Invalides is the most monumental quarter of the 7th, dominated by the gilded dome that Napoleon chose for his final resting place. The esplanade and the avenues radiating around the Musée de l'Armée create an urban setting of rare grandeur, valued by institutions and by residents who like space and wide streets.

District 03 Secret

École-Militaire

École-Militaire, around the Champ-de-Mars and avenue de La Motte-Picquet, is the family quarter of the 7th par excellence. The view of the Eiffel Tower from the upper floors is an argument no other city can make. The area is particularly popular with expatriate families, thanks to several international schools nearby.

District 04 Luxury

Gros-Caillou

Gros-Caillou is the liveliest and most down-to-earth quarter of the 7th, around the rue Cler market and the pedestrian streets beside it. Its village feel, preserved despite the Eiffel Tower next door, delights residents who shop at artisan bakeries, fishmongers and traditional wine merchants — a Paris that is authentic and luxurious at once.
