Passage Lemoine

Passage Lemoine is a narrow pedestrian route located in the 2nd arrondissement of Paris. It runs through a residential area and connects local streets with residential buildings on either side.

The passageway was created during the 1800s when Paris reorganized its street network and constructed such shortcuts through neighborhoods. This period shaped how the city connected inner districts together.

The passage incorporates architectural elements from nineteenth century Paris, reflecting the period when commercial passages transformed the urban landscape.

The passageway is open for local residents to use and serves as a daily walking connection. It is a practical way to move through the area, especially when avoiding main streets.

With a width of just about 1.65 meters, this passageway is one of the narrowest private walking routes in this part of Paris. Many visitors pass by without even noticing it because it blends so subtly into the urban fabric.
