Church of Saint-Germain-des-Prés
Originally founded in 543 AD, this is the oldest church in Paris. Once a powerful Benedictine abbey that governed much of the Left Bank, the current building features a unique blend of Romanesque architecture and vibrant, newly restored 19th-century murals. It serves as the spiritual heart of the historic Saint-Germain-des-Prés neighborhood.

Tour Saint-Jacques
Standing alone in a small park off the Rue de Rivoli, this 54-meter flamboyant Gothic tower is all that remains of the 16th-century church of Saint-Jacques-de-la-Boucherie. Once a bell tower for the powerful butchers' guild, it is now a protected UNESCO World Heritage site and a symbolic starting point for the Pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela (Camino de Santiago).
Historic
Passage Jouffroy
Built in 1846, Passage Jouffroy is one of the most popular and charming covered arcades in Paris. It was a technological marvel of its time, being the first Parisian passage built entirely of iron and glass and the first to feature underfloor heating. It remains a bustling corridor of nostalgia, connecting the Grands Boulevards to the Rue de la Grange-Batelière.
Shopping
Place Dauphine
Tucked away at the western tip of the Île de la Cité, Place Dauphine is a hidden sanctuary often called the most romantic square in Paris. Commissioned by Henri IV in 1607 (shortly after the Place des Vosges), it is a unique triangular "square" enclosed by elegant 17th-century buildings that shield it from the noise of the surrounding city.
Historic
Fontaine Place de la Contrescarpe
A charming circular fountain located in the center of the Place de la Contrescarpe, at the summit of the historic Rue Mouffetard. The square and fountain were established in 1852 during the Haussmann renovation of Paris, clearing a dense cluster of medieval houses to create a central gathering point for the Latin Quarter.

Cour et Jardin de l'Hôtel de Sully
A magnificent Louis XIII-style private mansion located in the heart of the Marais, the Hôtel de Sully serves as the headquarters for the Centre des Monuments Nationaux.

Musée Jacquemart-André
