The Place des Vosges is the oldest square in Paris and is located in the Marais district. The 140 by 140-meter square is surrounded by 39 identical houses (except two), each built of red brick. The larger Pavillon du Roi and the Pavillon de la Reine are located on the north and south walls, and these two houses are the ones that look different from the rest!

Richelieu lived at number 21 from 1615 to 1627. You'll find this house immediately to your left on the corner of the square as you enter.
