Furnished apartment and studio rentals in Paris Montorgueil Area.

A very lively Parisian district less well-known than the surrounding areas

Largely pedestrianized in the 1990s, the charm of the local streets combines with that of the many shopping alleys. The district is surrounded by the Eglise Saint-Eustache and Les Halles, Rue du Louvre, Rue Réaumur, and Boulevard Sébastopol. The buildings are concentrated in narrow streets, perfect for sitting at a table on the many terraces. While strolling from one store to the next, make sure you don't miss the entrance to the symbolic Passage du Grand-Cerf on Rue Saint-Denis, a shopping arcade with a high glass roof and which is listed as a historic monument.

Push the curiosity

A remnant of the first half of the 19th century, it has survived Haussmann-style metamorphosis and lamented by Aragon in Le Paysan de Paris, it is an enriching part of the social life and atmosphere of the neighborhood. On Rue Etienne Marcel, curiosity takes you to the Tour de Jean Sans Peur, one of the last relics of the Middle Ages in Paris. The tower is built on the ramparts of Philip II Augustus and was part of the Hôtel des Ducs de Bourgogne. Rue Saint-Denis is a symbol of Paris. It was known as the red-light district for many years but is now being transformed, and traditional stores are emerging.
