Paris: An Inspiring Tour of the City's Creative Heart

“A bit of history before we go on. Montmartre, which means “mountain of the martyr,” was given its name because of the martyrdom of Saint Denis, the bishop of Paris and now the patron saint of France, who was unfortunately decapitated on the hill by the nasty Romans. (Legend has it that Saint Denis simply picked up his head, washed it off and carried it 5 miles to the north to what is now the town of Saint-Denis before he finally dropped down dead.)”

Thank you for teaching me about the architect Haussmann.
