Valjean's Apartment
Historical Location: Rue de l'Homme-Armé
Modern Location: Rue des Archives
Metro stop: Hôtel de Ville
Notes: The section of the rue des Archives between the rue Sainte-Croix de la Bretonnerie and the Clos des Blancs-Manteaux used to be the rue de l'Homme-Armé. There's a plaque on no. 40 indicating the former name of this part of the street, though it should be noted that this is not where Valjean's apartment would have been--no. 7, rue de l'Homme-Armé would have been the fourth building on the other side of the street. This spot is part of the Marais walk, if you're interested in exploring nearby locations.
