But the area was not appropriate for a market, since the city was evolving very quickly. It was only during the nineteenth century that the <i>Halles de Baltard<\/i> were born! Les Halles de Baltard were twelve pavilions of an avant-garde architecture, made of cast iron and glass. This change happened in 1870. These pavilions stayed up for one hundred years. Each of them has a speciality, such as fish, vegetables, meat, while many other market stalls overflew the streets. <\/p>\n<p>The hygiene of the area was terrible and there was not much room. So, in 1969, the <i>Halles de Baltard<\/i> were moved to the town of Rungis and the pavilions were destroyed. This demolition deeply saddened the locals that lived in the neighborhood. For about ten years, there was a big hole right in the middle of it. Until, a new project emerged in 1979: the <i>Forum des Halles<\/i>. The Forum lasted for 47 years. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles2.jpg\" alt=\"top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles2\" width=\"980\" height=\"653\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13903\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles2.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles2-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles2-816x544.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 980px) 100vw, 980px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In 2010, <strong><i>Les Halles<\/i><\/strong> were once again redesigned and redevelopped to suit the modernization of the city, with its popular <i>Canop\u00e9e<\/i>.  <\/p>\n<h4>Fact n\u00ba2: The largest underground train station of Europe<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles3.png\" alt=\"top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles3\" width=\"1446\" height=\"1447\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13914\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles3.png 1446w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles3-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles3-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles3-768x769.png 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles3-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles3-88x88.png 88w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles3-816x817.png 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1446px) 100vw, 1446px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Les Halles<\/i><\/strong> is the largest underground train station of Europe!

I couldn&#8217;t talk about <strong><i>Les Halles<\/i><\/strong> without mentioning the <strong><i>\u00c9glise Saint Eustache<\/i><\/strong>! <\/p>\n<p>It is one of the biggest churches of Â鶹APP! Â鶹APP has plenty of chapels and churches, but apart from the <strong><i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/tour\/paris-walking-tours\/notre-dame-and-the-heart-of-paris-tour\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Notre Dame Cathedral<\/a><\/i><\/strong>, the city did not have large churches. This is why the <strong><i>Saint Eustache Church<\/i><\/strong> was built. It is 88 meters long, more than forty meters large and an arch of 33 meters. <\/p>\n<p>It was the King Fran\u00e7ois I that laid the first stone. He wanted to build a church that was able to compete with <strong><i><a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/tour\/paris-walking-tours\/notre-dame-and-the-heart-of-paris-tour\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Notre Dame<\/a><\/i><\/strong>. The <strong><i>Saint Eustache<\/i><\/strong> is one of the last Gothic churches, but it also has Renaissance details. Some Â鶹APPians consider it to be the greatest church of Â鶹APP. <\/p>\n<p>Due to its close location to the Louvre, it became the Royal parish. The Cardinal Richelieu was baptized in Saint Eustache. The King Louis XIV did his first communion there. Jean-Baptiste Lully got married in this church. And Colbert&#8217;s tomb is found there. <\/p>\n<p>While <strong><i>Notre Dame<\/i><\/strong> is the national church, the church dedicated to big ceremonies (such as coronations), the <strong><i>Saint Eustache<\/i><\/strong> is the church of the Â鶹APPians! <\/p>\n<h4>Fact n\u00ba4: Don&#8217;t miss the Stohrer bakery, the King&#8217;s favorite bakery<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles.jpg\" alt=\"top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles\" width=\"1151\" height=\"861\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13916\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles-300x224.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles-768x574.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles-1024x766.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles-816x610.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1151px) 100vw, 1151px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong><i>Les Halles<\/i><\/strong> definitely brought life to the neighborhood! In the streets around <strong><i>Les Halles<\/i><\/strong>, you will find many buildings and institutions that are centuries old! <\/p>\n<p>In the lovely street of Montorgueil, just a few steps from <strong><i>Les Halles<\/i><\/strong>, you will find the famous <strong><i>Stohrer<\/i><\/strong>. The decorations of the bakery are from the eighteenth century, designed by Paul Baudry who also designed the decorations for the <strong><i>Op\u00e9ra Garnier<\/i><\/strong>, and are now classified as historical. Nicolas Stohrer was the baker of the King. But, while the King was living in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/tour\/city\/versailles-walking-tours\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Â鶹APP<\/a>, he still decided to open his bakery on Rue Montorgueil. He opened its doors in 1730. Why did he choose to settle there?<\/p>\n<p>At that time, the Rue Montorgueil attracted an upper class clientele. People used to come there to buy fish and seafood, and not everyone could afford to buy seafood. Nicolas Stohrer chose to establish his bakery on this street, because he knew his clients would be able to afford his cakes. <\/p>\n<p>While at Stohrer, you can try the <i>Puit d&#8217;amour<\/i> pastry, which was Louis XV&#8217;s favorite one! And also the <i>Alibaba<\/i>, which was the favorite of his father-in-law, the King Stanislas. <\/p>\n<h4>Fact n\u00ba5: There was a cemetery<\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles6.jpg\" alt=\"top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles6\" width=\"1280\" height=\"893\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13917\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles6.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles6-300x209.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles6-768x536.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles6-1024x714.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/top5interestingfactsaboutleshalles6-816x569.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1280px) 100vw, 1280px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For about eight centuries, corpses were piled up near <strong><i>Les Halles<\/i><\/strong>.

As the city of Â鶹APP grew, the <strong><i>Cimeti\u00e8re des Innocents<\/i><\/strong> ended up being right in its centre. In 1780, the cemetery was closed for public health reasons.
