Quartier de l'Arsenal, Administrative quarter in 4th arrondissement, Paris, France.
The Arsenal quarter forms a triangular area defined by Quai Henri-IV along the Seine River, Arsenal Basin, and Boulevard Henri-IV.
In 1533, the quarter became the location of the King's Arsenal, which stored weapons and served as a justice chamber under Louis XIV's reign.
The Arsenal Library, established in 1757 by Marquis de Paulmy d'Argenson, became one of the primary literary institutions in 19th century Paris.
The Arsenal Basin transformed from a commercial port for wine, grain, and wood into a pleasure marina in 1983.
The area includes an abandoned metro station named Arsenal, which stands as a testament to the evolution of Paris transportation system.
