Some historical references for Quai de la Tournelle:
Origin of name: Due to the Tournelle, part of Philippe-Auguste’s enceinte, which led to the Seine at this point.
Street history: Upstream from Rue de Pontoise, in 1380 it was Quai et Port Saint-Bernard. The Quai was built by order of the Bureau de la Ville on June 23, 1554. Enlarged in 1738, it was renamed Quai de la Tournelle around 1750.

Environment and Neighborhood:
5th Arrondissement – The historic heart of the Latin Quarter has been a centre of scholarship and intellectual achievement for centuries and takes its name from the Sorbonne, where Latin was the common tongue for all students during the Middle Ages. This arrondissement is one of the oldest districts of the city where traces of the area’s past survive in such sites as the Arènes de Lutèce, a Roman amphitheatre, and the Thermes de Cluny, a Roman thermae. It remains a major draw card thanks to sights such as the Pantheon, the Sorbonne University, the botanical gardens known as the Jardin des Plantes. The neighbourhood has the feel of a small village and students mix freely with professionals in its winding streets. The market street of Rue Mouffetard is a primary artery where shops, international restaurants, bars and cafes are found.
