First called rue des Chevannes, because it was a center of activity related to hemp, it became around 1800 rue des Tanneurs because it was mainly inhabited by tanners craftsmen, came to settle because of the proximity of the water. Around 1800, Jean-Joseph Pasteur and his wife Jeanne-Étiennette Roqui settled in this street in the current No. 43. At that time, the street was covered with herds that were brought to a small trough overlooking the canal, at the slaughterhouse nearby. The neighborhood was then wet and nauseating due to the presence of many tanneries. Louis Pasteur was born in this street, then called rue des Tanneurs, December 27, 1822, whose family shares the apartments with the former owner and the household of the worker-tanner who was already employed by his predecessor. fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rue_Pasteur_(Dole)
