The Paris Police Prefecture ((フランス語:Préfecture de police de Paris)) is the unit of the French National Police which provides the police force for the city of Paris and the surrounding three suburban ''départements'' of Hauts-de-Seine, Seine-Saint-Denis, and Val-de-Marne. It is headed by the Prefect of Police (''Préfet de police''). It is also in charge of emergency services, such as the Paris Fire Brigade, and performs administrative duties, such as issuing ID cards and driver licenses or monitoring alien residents. The Prefecture of Police also has limited security duties in the wider Île-de-France ''région''. The prefecture is a large building located in the Place Louis Lépine on the Île de la Cité. This building was built as a barracks for the Garde républicaine from 1863 to 1867 (architect Pierre-Victor Calliat) and was occupied by the Prefecture in 1871. As it is the capital of France, with government assemblies and offices and foreign embassies, Paris poses special issues of security and public order. Consequently, the national government has been responsible for providing law enforcement and emergency services since the creation of the Lieutenancy General of Police (''lieutenance générale de police'') by Louis XIV on March 15, 1667. Disbanded at the start of the French Revolution in 1789, it was replaced by the current Prefecture of Police created by Napoléon I on February 17, 1800. This means that Paris does not have its own ''police municipale'' and that the Police Nationale provides these services directly as a subdivision of France's Ministry of the Interior. In Parisian slang, the police are sometimes known as "the archers", a very old slang term in reference to the archers of the long-defunct Royal Watch. ==Jurisdiction== The jurisdiction of the Prefecture of Police was initially the Seine ''département''. Its jurisdiction also included the communes (municipalities) of Saint-Cloud, Sèvres, Meudon, and Enghien-les-Bains, which were located in the Seine-et-Oise ''département''. These four communes were added in the 19th century to the jurisdiction of the Prefecture of Police in order to ensure special protection of the imperial/royal residences located there. The Seine ''département'' was disbanded in 1968 and the jurisdiction of the Prefecture of Police is now the city of Paris (which is both a commune and a ''département'') and the three surrounding ''départements'' of Hauts-de-Seine, Seine-Saint-Denis, Val-de-Marne. This territory made up of four ''départements'' is larger than the pre-1968 Seine ''département''. The Prefecture of Police also has limited jurisdiction over the whole Île-de-France ''région'' for the coordination of law enforcement. The Prefect of Police, acting as Prefect of the Defense Zone of Paris (''Préfet de la Zone de Défense de Paris''), is in charge of planning non-military defense measures to keep public order, guarantee the security of public services, and organize rescue operations (in case of natural disaster) for the whole Île-de-France ''région'' (which is made up of eight ''départements'', the four inner ones being the regular jurisdiction of the Prefecture of Police, and the four outer ones being outside of its regular jurisdiction). As such, he coordinates the work of the departmental ''préfets'' of Île-de-France. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Paris Police Prefecture」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
