    As we read in a previous post, the Ozanams began their married life by settling in a small place on the rue de Grenelle in Paris. But because the heat in the summer was intolerable there, they accepted the kind offer of Monsieur Bailly to rent an apartment in the rue de Fleurus with a lovely view of the Luxembourg Gardens.

    The last apartment where Frédéric Ozanam lived in Paris was at 31 − 33 Rue de Fleurus, alongside Saint-Joseph-des-Carmes church. This dwelling has since been destroyed.
