En se promenant dans Paris, il n\u2019est pas rare de croiser des installations surprenantes et hors du temps, comme les d\u00e9crottoirs<\/a> ou les chasse-roues<\/a>. Ces t\u00e9moins d\u2019un temps r\u00e9volu ont plus de secrets \u00e0 r\u00e9v\u00e9ler qu\u2019il n\u2019y para\u00eet. On vous propose aujourd’hui de d\u00e9couvrir l\u2019utilit\u00e9 de l’un\u00a0de ces petits mobiliers urbains : la bo\u00eete \u00e0 sable.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Il n\u2019en reste plus que trois<\/strong>\u00a0dans tout Paris, mais il est fort probable que vous en ayez d\u00e9j\u00e0 vu un. Ces imposants coffrets en m\u00e9tal ont \u00e9t\u00e9 install\u00e9s au d\u00e9but du XX\u00e8me si\u00e8cle pour y stocker, vous l’aurez compris, du sable. Mais pourquoi avait-on besoin de sable ? Pour rendre les chauss\u00e9es plus praticables<\/strong> !<\/p>\n

Ainsi, quand la chauss\u00e9e \u00e9tait glissante \u00e0 cause du verglas ou de la neige, les cantonniers<\/strong> charg\u00e9s de l\u2019entretien des routes y choppaient du sable pour recouvrir les voies. Le sable servait \u00e9galement \u00e0 \u00e9ponger l\u2019urine de chevaux ou le sang qui se trouvait sur une chauss\u00e9e (pour ce dernier point, c’est encore le cas aujourd’hui).\u00a0Les bo\u00eetes \u00e0 sable sont tomb\u00e9es en d\u00e9su\u00e9tude quand le sel\u00a0a\u00a0remplac\u00e9 le sable<\/strong> dans la lutte contre la neige et le verglas.<\/p>\n

Les derniers exemplaires de ce mobilier urbain (bien pratique) d’antan se trouvent\u00a0avenue Trudaine, dans le 9e arrondissement, avenue Gabriel et\u00a0place de la reine Astrid, dans le 8e arrondissement.<\/p>\n
