Near Musée Picasso
Le Marais 0.1 km
A historic district across the 3rd and 4th arrondissements of the Right Bank, once home to the aristocracy. Its narrow streets of old mansions now hold galleries, boutiques, falafel shops and some of the city's best small museums.
Place des Vosges 0.5 km
The oldest planned square in Paris, laid out in the Marais in the early 17th century as the Place Royale. Matching red-brick houses with arcades enclose a garden of trees and fountains, and Victor Hugo once lived at number 6.
Centre Pompidou 0.8 km
A building worn inside out, its pipes, ducts and escalators painted in bright colours on the outside, designed by Renzo Piano and Richard Rogers. Locals call it Beaubourg, and it holds one of the largest collections of modern art in Europe.
Île Saint-Louis 1.0 km
A quiet island of eleven hectares in the Seine, joined to both banks by four bridges and to the Île de la Cité by a footbridge. Its streets of 17th-century townhouses are known for their ice cream shops, Berthillon above all.
Notre-Dame de Paris 1.2 km
A medieval Gothic cathedral on the Île de la Cité, seat of the Archbishop of Paris. Its twin towers, flying buttresses and rose windows have watched over the Seine for more than eight centuries, and it reopened in 2024 after years of restoration.
Île de la Cité 1.2 km
One of two natural islands in the Seine and the place where Paris began. Clovis I, first King of the Franks, set up his castle here in 508, and today its 22.5 hectares hold Notre-Dame, the Sainte-Chapelle and the Conciergerie.
Conciergerie 1.3 km
A former courthouse and prison on the Île de la Cité that began as part of the medieval royal palace, alongside the Sainte-Chapelle. Two great Gothic halls survive from that palace, and Marie Antoinette was held here in her last days.
Sainte-Chapelle 1.4 km
A royal chapel on the Île de la Cité, built between 1238 and 1248 for King Louis IX to house the Crown of Thorns. Its upper chapel is walled almost entirely in stained glass, so that on a bright day the whole room glows with colour.
