About Saint-Vincent de Paul
Where to stay in Saint-Vincent de Paul
Where you base yourself shapes the visit — here's the character of each area.
The church sets the reference. A room in the streets by the Saint-Vincent-de-Paul church leaves Halle Saint-Pierre, the Sacré-Cœur and Saint-Pierre de Montmartre among the landmarks a walk can reach, and it keeps the quarter's own frontage close. Quiet is uneven, though.
Addresses out towards Les Jardins d'Eole and the gymnase Doudeauville sit among plain apartment streets rather than visitor frontage, which serves a longer stay better than a single night.
About Saint-Vincent de Paul
What are the main landmarks in Saint-Vincent de Paul?
The church comes first. Saint-Vincent-de-Paul church gives the quartier its name, and three more places of worship stand within reach of it: Saint-Bernard de la Chapelle, Saint-Pierre de Montmartre and the Sacré-Cœur. The rest is everyday ground.
Halle Saint-Pierre, Les Jardins d'Eole, the belvédère de la Bohème and the Piscine Château-Landon are the addresses that carry the quarter's public space, with the gymnase Ronsard and the centre sportif de la Goutte d'Or serving the same streets.
What is the history of Saint-Vincent de Paul?
The date on record is 1844. That year fixes the quartier in the register, and the formal name, Quartier Saint-Vincent-de-Paul, simply repeats the dedication of the church. Little else is documented.
What the record does hold is institutional, the Piscine Château-Landon, the centre d'animation Château-Landon and the centre Paris Anim' la Chapelle among them, the fabric a working quarter accumulates over time rather than a founding story.
