Regard Saint-Martin, Historical monument at rue des Cascades, 20th arrondissement of Paris, France.
The Saint-Martin manhole features a stone-roofed structure with a wooden door, built against a retaining wall in the Belleville district of Paris.
The Latin inscription from the 18th century on the pediment records renovations in 1633 and additional construction work completed in 1722.
The monks of Saint-Martin-des-Champs priory used this structure to collect water from the Savies fountain during the Middle Ages.
This construction provides access to water channels and remains an integral part of the historical water management system in northeast Paris.
A carved shield depicting Saint Martin tearing his cloak adorns the stone surface above the left side of the entrance door.
