Lonely Planet review for Le Bon Marché

Opened by Gustave Eiffel as Paris’ first department store in 1852, The Good Market (which also means ‘bargain’ in French) is the Left Bank’s chic one-stop shop. The ­icing on the cake is its glorious food hall.

    World's first department store

    michalkorman recommends this,

    Le Bon Marché is the first department store in the world founded in 1838. Relocated in 1852 under the Aristide Boucicaut it was considered as a cathedral of consumation. Surely not opened by Eiffel, but the genius of Mr. and Mrs. Boucicaut it was built by architect Louis-Charles Boileau who succeeded Alexandre Laplanche and ingeneer Armand Moisant. Gustav Eiffel undertook small works on metal structure in 1879.
