Montmartre

The "Hill of the Martyrs", named after early Christians persecuted by the Romans, lies north of the city centre and is crowned by the magnificent Sacré Coeur. Montmartre became the haunt of countless artists in the 19th century and virtually everything in the area is devoted to their memory. The very pretty Place du Tertre is the heart of touristy Montmartre but beyond the square you can find seclusion from the crowds.

The nearby Espace Dali (Rue Poulbot, 18e. Tel: +33 (0)1-4264-4010) is filled with works by the surrealist Spanish artist, and not far off, in Rue Cortot, the Musée de Montmartre (12 Rue Cortot, 18e. Tel: +33 (0)1-4606-6111) proves an interesting local history museum. The village-like ambience of the area is heightened by a couple of old windmills, namely the Moulin de la Galette and the Moulin du Radet, and a patch of vineyard.
