LegacyThe Claude-Decaen street in the 12th arrondissement of Paris pays tribute since 1877 . A fire took his name to Caen (Barracks 43rd Artillery Regiment). She has now gone, but the public garden Claude Decaen was laid in the early 2000s on part of the land released by the army. His name is also passed, informally, the district built on the remains of the military site, called "General Claude Decaen neighborhood."
