Stop atMoulin Rouge
The Moulin Rouge is an important starting point, because we meet here Henri Toulouse-Lautrec. This impressionist made painting of the "vedettes" (stars) of the Moulin Rouge: La Goulue and Jane Avril. We will see both later in Musée d'Orsay.

Stop atVan Gogh's House
The (post-)impressionist Vincent van Gogh has lived between 1886 and 1888 in Montmartre where he met many other painters. He lived in Rue Lepic together with his brother Theo. We will see several of his paintings later in Musée d'Orsay.

Stop atSquare Jehan Rictus
Montmartre is famous because of the impressionist painters. It is also a beautiful neighbourhood by itself. We enjoy this beauty and funny side by passing the Wall of Love: in 311 different languages "I love you". Find your own language.

Stop atLe Bateau-Lavoir
This is the studio of Pablo Picasso. Also this original Spanish painter created a turning point in modern art in Montmartre by starting the Cubism movement. Another proof that this neighbourhood is more than only a hype, it really brought a huge importance for art history and art lovers.
