Îlot de la Reine Blanche

6 rue Gustave Geffroy - 75013 Paris Place d’Italie – Chinese district
Classified as historic monuments, these buildings date from the 15th to the 18th centuries. Their history is linked to that of the Gobelin family, who installed their workshops here in the early 16th century. Notable features are the late 15th-century Maison de la Reine Blanche, an outer wall dating from the 13th century and vestiges of former dyeworks built along the river Bièvre, which today runs underground.
