While you’ll find the works of these Impressionists, and Post Impressionists in Musée d’Orsay, Musée d’Orangerie, the Louvre and Musée Marmottan-Monet, Picasso and Braques in the Musée Picasso in the Marais and the other artists in various of the larger museums around the capital, coming to Montmartre will allow you to literally walk in their steps and visit the scenes of their lives and their artworks. Monet, Renoir, Cézanne, Sisley, Degas, Vardon, Toulouse-Lautrec, Cassatt, Morisot, Van Gogh as well as Severini, Seurat, Signac, Modigliani, Braque, Juan Gris, Picasso … it’s quite incredible.

It’s true that the central parts of Montmartre today are full of tourists and that the type of artists who made the hill famous by passionately living, creating and socialising in the apartments, studios, cafés and cabarets could no longer afford the rent here. But Montmartre hasn’t lost its charm and once you get off the main streets you can find quieter cobblestoned alleys and trip back in time. To imagine and celebrate the period that swept the world and changed the face of art forever, it’s easy to get among it by foot. While exploring the past of Montmartre you can discover today’s pretty laneways, panoramic views, colourful street art and breathe in the fresh(er) air.

Make sure you’re not rushed so you can go at your own pace and with the hilly, cobblestoned streets, good shoes are a must!
