Guide des passages couverts à Paris (passage Brady, Jouffroy, Choiseul, Ponceau...) avec leur historique, leurs spécificités propres, ce qu'il y a visiter, etc. ©Electre 2025
An innovative architectural type in the 19th century, the covered passage was the result of a perfect correlation between the conception of the city, the rise of the luxury goods trade and a new type of social life. Multi-purpose, it was intended as much for circulation as for all manners of amusement. Among the forty-odd passages which enhanced the French capital from the late 18th to the mid-19th century, only seventeen still fulfil their initial function. All are situated on the right bank of the Seine. They can be explored district by district, following an itinerary based on a topographical and chronological sequence.
Founded in 1999, the association "Passages et Galeries" undertakes various operations promoting the protection, knowledge and development of these sites which are particularly interesting from the point of view of urbanism, architecture and commerce.
