Name origin

The street was named in 1863 in honor of the writer Marceline Desbordes-Valmore (1786-1859). The author of children's books and melancholy poems committed suicide on July 23, 1859.

history

This path in the former municipality of Passy was opened on the grounds of Parc Guichet under the name “Rue Notre-Dame”.

After it was incorporated into Paris (May 23, 1863), it was renamed “Rue Desbordes-Valmore” (August 24, 1864).

In November 2019, the city council decided to "feminize" the street names and the current name, Rue Marceline-Desbordes-Valmore .

Attractions

The architect Jacques Duban (1797–1870) and the composer Félicien David (1810–1876) lived in this street, as did the well-known criminal lawyer Faustin Hélie (1799–1884), after whom the street that is the southern end of Rue Desbordes was named -Valmore forms. For many years, Hélie was head of the criminal justice department in the French Ministry of Justice and later also worked as a consultant for the appeals court. He was also appointed President of the Chamber of Criminal Justice in 1872 and Vice-President of the Council of State in 1879. Hélie wrote two pioneering works that influence French criminal law to this day. He is therefore considered one of the most important commentators on the French penal code.
