Boulevard Soult

The boulevard Soult is a boulevard of the XII {{E}} district of Paris. It is part of the “small belt” (or “Boulevards of the Marshals”).

The boulevard leaves the Avenue Daumesnil and arrives at the Porte of Vincennes, where it leaves the place to the Boulevard Davout.

History

The way preceding the Soult boulevard belonged to the Military Rue which girdled Paris on the internal side of the fortifications. The street Militaire was given conditionally to the Town of Paris by Military Engineering pursuant to a ministerial decision of July 28th, 1859. The boulevard then received the name of Nicolas Jean of God Soult (1769 - 1851), duke of Dalmatie, Marshal of France.

In the years 1930, social housing (of type HBM) was built on the old site of the Zone , to accommodate a modest population often resulting from the rural migration of the post-war period. These residences were practically built all along the Soult boulevard between the Porte of Vincennes and the Gilded Porte on the external side (even numbers).

In the middle of the years 1960, the southern part of the Soult boulevard is arranged to accommodate the Lycée Paul-Valéry.
