The rue des rosiers, located in the Montmartre district for many years in Paris

Not to be confused with the present rue des Rosiers in the marsh, another rue des Rosiers existed on the butte Montmartre until 1868, when it was named "rue de la Fontenelle", precisely to avoid confusion between the two roads. Nevertheless, the old section of the rue de la Fontenelle kept its usual name of rue des Rosiers in the Montmartre district for many years, before the rue de la Fontenelle itself also changed its name to become the present rue du Chevalier-de-la-Barre in 1885. It was at number 36, on the section that then belonged to the rue des Rosiers, that Generals Lecomte and Clément-Thomas were executed there. General Lecomte, at the head of a unit sent by the government to Versailles, had just failed to seize the guns of the Montmartre mound. General Clément Thomas, in civilian clothes, was drawing up a plan of the defences of the mound on behalf of the Versailles people when he was recognized by a soldier and shot over the still warm body of General Leconte. Two months later, during the bloody week, it was the communard Eugène Varlin who would in turn be lynched in front of the same number 36.
