Comment

Opened in 1921, in the 13th arrondissement in place of the Cinéma des Fleurs, the new ball enjoyed years of prosperity until 1939 with its renowned owner, César Leone, who was world dance champion in 1926. In 1969, he relinquished the ball, which was transformed into a restaurant and nightclub, the Navy Club.
