   I can only presume you mean the Rue Daru.

A LITTLE BIT OF TRIVIA
The cathedral of St Alexander Nevsky, 12 Rue Daru, Paris, featured in the opening sequence of the 1956 Ingrid Bergman film "Anastasia".

    It should be worth a visit.

It was unveiled by the emperor Nicholas 2 himself, during his "tour" de France.
