Quai de la Loire, Riverfront path in 19th arrondissement, France

The Quai de la Loire extends for 850 meters along the water, featuring a 12-meter wide pathway that provides space for walking and cycling activities.

Originally designated as departmental route 76, this riverfront path was established in 1829 following the construction of Canal de l'Ourcq and received its current name in 1857.

Former warehouse buildings from 1845 served as filming locations for the 1981 movie Diva and now house a youth hostel and water sports facilities.

The riverfront path connects with multiple metro lines at Jaurès station, offering convenient access points for visitors exploring the 19th arrondissement of Paris.

During World War I, buildings numbered 88, 90, and 98 along the quai sustained damage from German aircraft attacks on January 30, 1918.
