Cour de l'Étoile-d'Or, Protected courtyard in Sainte-Marguerite district, Paris, France

The Cour de l'Étoile-d'Or consists of two interconnected courtyards measuring 80 meters in length and 3.6 meters in width, surrounded by historic buildings.

The construction of this architectural complex began around 1640 with a pleasure house, gradually evolving from a garden space to industrial workshops by the 19th century.

A wooden staircase railing registered as a historical monument in 1928 exemplifies the preservation of architectural elements from the 17th century French craftsmanship.

The courtyard entrance is located at 75 Rue du Faubourg-Saint-Antoine, approximately fifty meters east of Rue de Charonne in the 11th arrondissement.

During its 1998 renovation by architect Didier Drummond, the second courtyard received the name 'Cour des Shadoks' as a tribute to Jacques Rouxel.
