Café de la Paix, Historic coffeehouse in La Rochelle, France.
The Café de la Paix features Empire-style woodwork, ceiling moldings with floral paintings, grand chandeliers, and expansive wall mirrors from the early 1900s.
Originally established as a hospital in 1709 during an epidemic, the building transformed into a military café in 1793 before becoming Café de la Paix in 1900.
The establishment received monument historique status in 1984, preserving its architectural elements and cultural significance within La Rochelle's heritage landscape.
Located in central La Rochelle, the café welcomes visitors Monday through Saturday from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM with limited wheelchair accessibility.
