A dive into history

Your journey in Le Marais could begin with the Place des Vosges, one of the oldest and most beautiful squares in Paris. Built under Henri IV at the beginning of the 17th century, it is framed by buildings with red facades and typical slate roofs. You can visit the house of Victor Hugo, where the author wrote part of "Les Misérables", and share with him the view from his windows on the city.

The center of contemporary art

For lovers of modern art, Le Marais is a must. The Perrotin Gallery, located on rue de Turenne, is famous for presenting works by renowned contemporary artists such as Takashi Murakami and Jean-Michel Othoniel. A visit to this gallery will immerse you in the current trends of world art. Not far away, the Picasso Museum, housed in the Hôtel Salé, houses one of the richest collections of Picasso's works, offering a complete overview of different periods of the artist.

Gastronomy and markets

Le Marais is also famous for its varied gastronomic scene. The Marché des Enfants Rouges, the oldest covered market in Paris, offers an authentic culinary experience with stalls offering dishes from all regions of the world. Take the time to enjoy a lunch here, or if you prefer something more sophisticated, book a table at Le Mary Celeste, an oyster bar and restaurant where the dishes are as creative as they are delicious.

Nightlife and festivities

After sunset, Le Marais transforms into a center of festive activity. The rue des Rosiers, the epicenter of the Parisian Jewish community, is lively both day and night. You will find excellent falafels and a warm atmosphere. For a more chic evening, go to Andy Wahloo, a cocktail bar that offers unique creations in a decor inspired by the 1970s in Morocco. The district is also known for its vibrant LGBT+ scene, with many bars and clubs where the party continues until the early morning.

Le Marais offers a captivating blend of past and present, where history meets modernity in perfect harmony. Every corner of the street reveals something unexpected, whether it is a piece of history, an avant-garde work of art or a place to relax. During your visit, let yourself be guided by curiosity and discover why Le Marais remains one of the most dynamic and loved districts of Paris!
