Cité des Fleurs

The Cité des Fleurs (French pronunciation: [site de flœʁ]) is a pedestrian street in the épinettes district in the 17th arrondissement of Paris.

[1] The site was created in 1847 by two landowners and is organized around a 320 meters long pedestrian way.

During World War II, the house at number 25 hosted a Résistance network.

The Gestapo discovered it and most members died, shot in Paris or in camps.

The famous French actresses Catherine Deneuve and Françoise Dorléac were born there in 1943.
