The Batignolles's district has kept much of its provincial character. Verlaine's family lived in an adjoining street which allowed the poet to grow in this area and to finish his studies Boulevrd des Batignolles. Moreover, the "Prince of the poets", Stéphane Mallarmé received every Tuesday at his home the "intellengsia of Paris" and organized literary meetings.
