Cours du Commerce Saint-André
This charming passage was opened in the mid-1700s
linking the rue Saint-André des Arts and the Rue de l'Ancienne Comédie.
It houses the Procope café, a meeting place for writers and intellectuals of that era.
In a granary here, M. Guillotin tried out his "philanthropic decapitating machine"
on sheep (1790). I do not believe that there is a marker or any evidence of such in this gallery. (thankfully!)
