As a landmark, it offers film enthusiasts and tourists a chance to explore its historic screening room, decorated with original artwork and chandeliers designed by Jean Cocteau. Beyond its cinematic importance, Studio 28 is a cultural hub, hosting film festivals, retrospectives, and special events that capture the spirit of Parisian cinema.
Place du Tertre
Place du Tertre, situated near the Sacré-Cœur Basilica, is a charming square at the heart of Montmartre's artistic scene. Since the late 19th century, this historic square has been a gathering place for artists, continuing a tradition that once included masters like Picasso and Renoir. Today, visitors can watch artists creating and selling their works, purchase original artwork, or even have their portrait sketched. Place du Tertre provides a glimpse into Montmartre's vibrant artistic heritage and offers a unique, immersive experience that captures the spirit of Parisian creativity.
Vineyards of Montmartre
Nestled in the heart of Montmartre, Clos Montmartre is Paris' oldest vineyard. This vineyard offers visitors a unique opportunity to witness wine production in an urban setting, a charming reminder of Montmartre's agricultural past. Although small, the vineyard produces wine each year. The harvest festival in October is a significant local event. Visiting the vineyard provides not only beautiful photo opportunities but also a chance to discover a hidden side of Paris, far from the bustling city streets.
Le Passe-Muraille Statue
Le Passe-Muraille, or 'The Walker-Through-Walls', is a whimsical bronze sculpture by Jean Marais, inspired by Marcel Aymé's short story of the same name. The statue depicts a man emerging from a wall, capturing the essence of Aymé's fantastical narrative. Located in Montmartre, where Aymé lived, the sculpture pays homage to the author and his work. Visitors are encouraged to touch the hand of the sculpture for good luck, making it a beloved and interactive landmark.
Sacré-Cœur Basilica
The Sacré-Cœur Basilica is an iconic symbol of Paris, perched atop the Butte Montmartre, the city's highest point. This Roman Catholic church, dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, offers breathtaking panoramic views of Paris.
