I will be at the exit of the Abbesses metro line 12, next to where the “crêperie du manège” is, with a black umbrella in my hands. For greater comfort, use the elevator in the station as it is the deepest station in the city and has many steps.

Montmartre is one of the most iconic districts in Paris. Located on the highest hill in the city, it has been home to numerous famous artists and writers, from the impressionist painter Toulouse-Lautrec to the painter Vincent Van Gogh. Montmartre has long been characterized by its unique charm. Narrow, steep streets mingle with old buildings and small bars, cafés and shops.
