No ? Well, chances are you've already walked past it, as it's located in the heart of the Marais, on rue François Miron. So head to the 4th arrondissement to discover the Maison de l'Ours, with its Renaissance façade and basement dating back to the 13th century.

Originally, in the 13th century, this house belonged to the Cistercian abbey ofOurscamp, in the Oise region. The original cellar can still be seen in the basement, arranged around three rib-vaulted naves resting on six pillars adorned with geometric capitals. One of the side walls even houses a staircase set into the thickness of the masonry. The symmetrical ashlar facades of the two houses date from the late 16th century. They feature Renaissance-style dormers with pilasters and triglyphs.
