The 1st arrondissement of Paris, around the Louvre and the Tuileries. Google Maps.
The 1st arrondissement occupies the historic heart of the Right Bank, around the Louvre palace, a former royal residence turned museum. The district took shape over the centuries around the great monarchical ensembles, the Palais Royal and the Tuileries, which make it one of the most history-laden areas of the capital.
The arrondissement brings together very different neighbourhoods: the place Vendôme and its luxury jewellery trade, Les Halles and their rebuilt shopping forum, the rue de Rivoli and its arcades, and the quiet, residential area around the place Dauphine on the Île de la Cité. The building stock mixes classical blocks, private mansions and Haussmann-era construction.
Today, its absolute centrality and the presence of the Louvre, the Tuileries garden and the Comédie-Française make it an exceptional heritage area, sought after by international buyers and by investors targeting the rental market.
The 1st arrondissement attracts wealthy international buyers looking for a heritage pied-à-terre, investors targeting long-term or seasonal letting, and second-home buyers drawn by the area's central location and prestige. The scarce supply and high prices steer part of the demand towards mid-sized units, which are sought after and easy to resell.
