Basilique du Sacre-Coeur de Montmartre

You’ll close your visit to Montmartre at the unforgettable Sacré Coeur. Before that, though, rendez-vous at Pere Tanguy’s, 14 rue Clauzel, as described by Claude Monet: “His shop was absolutely miniscule and his window so narrow that you could only display one painting at a time. That’s where all of us started displaying our canvases. Monday was Sisley’s, Tuesday was for Renoir, Wednesday for PIssaro, Thursday for me, Friday for Bazille and Saturday for Jongkind. That was how each in turn spent a day in the shop window of Pere Tanguy.”Let’s meet there and experience a Montmartre of yesteryear, bubbling with the creativity of unknowns which time will turn into household names. Pere Tanguy will tell you all.
