All along the rue de Paris, the houses are a throwback to the 19C, a period of prosperity in Réunion. Each one has its own distinct character and charm. Admire the shingle roofs, openwork eaves cornices, verandas, ornate façades and manicured gardens. The most remarkable include, at no 15, Villa Deramond, the birthplace of Léon Dierx and Raymond Barre, at no 25, Villa Repiquet and at no 26, the Artothèque.
