Scarlet-dyeing workshops in Paris, named after Jehan Gobelin.
The name of this factory comes from Jehan Gobelin who in the 15th century established a dyeing workshop in the sector of the Faubourg Saint-Marcel.the establishment expanded gradually and invested the banks of the Bièvre. The Gobelins, which specialized in scarlet dyeing, participated under Henry IV in the development of the kingdom's factories in order to limit costly imports. In 1662, Colbert acquired the Gobelins which became "It was from this period that masterpieces such as "The Story of Alexander" after Le Brun and "The Story of Moses" after Poussin were produced... a golden age until the end of the 17th century when production established an international reputation for luxury and know-how. Having survived the political changes, the Gobelins were attached to the administration of the Mobilier National in 1937 and opened to contemporary trends. Today the institution also provides furnishings for the most prestigious places in the Republic while ensuring the conservation and restoration of its collections. The workshops of the Manufacture date back in part to the 17th century. From the eponymous avenue, you can see the "gallery", a brick and stone building built in 1914, whose facade features caryatids associated with eight medallions paying tribute to the different trades and stages of the art of weaving.
