Impasse du Tir

The name of this passage, Impasse du Tir, serves as a direct link to the military history of this area. In the nineteenth century, the space was frequented by soldiers stationed at the nearby Fort de Vanves, who used this specific location for their marksmanship training. While the surrounding neighborhood grew into a dense residential suburb, the name remains as a quiet reminder of when this land served the needs of the army rather than the needs of city dwellers.
