The Alésia-Montparnasse district has long been the favourite place for artists. The painter Picasso, the sculptor Giacometti and the singer Georges Brassens, to name just three, all lived very close to the Hotel Moulin Vert.
The large glass roofs in a number of artists’ lofts – today transformed into flats – remain visible today. Although located right in the heart of Paris, the district has managed to preserve its village-like character. Boutiques, bistros and street markets coexist in harmony. Residents and office workers lend stability and security to the neighbourhood.
Lively and popular, while preserved from the incessant flow of tourists found elsewhere, the Alésia-Montparnasse delights visitors seeking this unique atmosphere which has brought honour to Paris through the years in films and in literature.
