Buttons: Gendarmerie Impériale de Paris, diam 25 mm
Le 30 Décembre 1812 , la Garde de Paris, impliquée par sa passivité, dans la conspiration du général Malet est dissoute.
Elle est remplacée par la Gendarmerie Impériale de Paris pour la sécurité de la capitale le 10 Août 1813.
Le décret de formation date en fait du 8 Avril et pendant 3 mois ce sont les éléments dissous de la Légion de Gendarmerie de Burgos qui font le service dans la capitale.
Cette nouvelle unité est directement placée sous les ordres du préfet de Police.
Ce corps aura la droite sur toute la Gendarmerie après la Gendarmerie d' Élite et incorpore beaucoup d' anciens de la Gendarmerie d' Espagne.
La durée de vie de cette formation est très courte puisque l'empereur abdique
