Paris - Montparnasse
|
|
The Montparnasse quarter of Paris is now almost more celebrated for the 59 story Tour Maine- Montparnasse than for the old artists' colonies whose last remnants have survived in the southern part of the 14th arrondissement.
While between the turn of the century and the First World War Montmartre and in the decade following the Second World War Saint-Germain-des-Prés were the haunt of artists and intellectuals, this role fell during the 20s and 30s to Montparnasse.
