The Rue du Faubourg-Poissonnière[1] marks the boundary between the 9th and 10th arrondissements of Paris, the main thoroughfare of the old Faubourg Poissonnière district.

[4] From 1770, Claude-Martin Goupy speculated in the Faubourg Poissonnière on land sold by the community of Filles-Dieu, of which he was the entrepreneur, playing a key role in the urbanization of the district.

[5] On August 11, 1792, it was near the Poissonnière barrier, in a vast trench dug for this purpose, that 400 to 500 corpses of Swiss Guards killed in the stairs, courtyards and Tuileries garden were thrown haphazardly.

[6] On June 23, 1848, during the Trois Glorieuses, the Poissonnière barrier was the scene of fierce fighting between the insurgents, barricaded in the buildings, and the government troops.

On March 8, 1918, during World War I, a bomb thrown from a German plane exploded at no.
