Title
Slaughtering House: Montmartre
Description
In 1810, in an attempt to appease the complaints of many Parisians, Napoléon ordered that five slaughtering houses, or "abattoirs," be built just outside of Paris: three on the right bank, and two on the left. These areas were to be the only designated locations where butchers were allowed to slaughter cattle. The abattoir of Montmartre, shown here, was located between the rues Rochechouart, de la Tour d'Auvergne, and des Martyrs, and had dimensions of 1074 feet by 384 feet.
