Rue Saint-Dominique

The Rue Saint-Dominique is a street in the 7th arrondissement of Paris. It was formerly known as Chemin de la Longue Raye (1355), Chemin des Treilles (1433), Chemin Herbu (des Moulins à Vent) (1523), Chemin de l'Oseraie (1527), Chemin du Port (1530), Chemin des Vaches (1542), Chemin de la Justice and Chemin des Charbonniers. It was renamed Rue Saint-Dominique in 1643 after the Dominican monastery set up a few years earlier near the eastern end of the street (now absorbed by the Boulevard Saint-Germain), whose only remnant is the Église Saint-Thomas-d’Aquin on the Place Saint-Thomas-d’Aquin (called Place des Jacobins until 1802, after the Dominicans).

Rue Saint-Dominique

In 1670, Jeanne Baptiste d'Albert de Luynes was born at number 33, the Hôtel de Luynes. It is now destroyed.

The Rue Saint-Dominique is crossed by the Esplanade des Invalides.

The Irish musician Rob Smith released a song in March 2011 called "Rue Sainte-Dominique". The music video was shot on the street and surrounding area.[1]

gollark: I don't think mr wilde will mind if we come up with a better way to organize stuff and explain why.
gollark: What?
gollark: Good news! It turns out that the MPU6050 *does* have drivers which are compatible with the DMP thing and will actually run on the Pi! Unfortunately they are poorly documented C++!
gollark: Also, the robot is mostly disassembled, so it cannot* really be tested in person.
gollark: I have good news regarding the thing, also. The random accelerometer/gyroscope module which seems to be around seems pretty good and should allow rotation™.
