The 6th Arrondissement is located in the Heart of Paris’ Rive Gauche, or Left Bank. Considered by Parisians and Visitors alike to be the Quintessential Paris Neighborhood, it is Home to the Atmospheric Saint-Germain-des-Prés Quartier, the Latin Quarter and the exquisite Luxembourg Gardens. One of the best Walking Neighborhoods in Paris, you’ll discover countless Cafés, Restaurants, Boutiques, Art Galleries and Antique Shops, and some of the City’s best small Art Museums.
Nestled between the Seine and the Luxembourg Gardens, the Latin Quarter has been the Center of learning in Paris for more than 700 years. Many of Paris’ most important Writers, Philosophers and Artists walked these Streets and attended the Schools and Universities nearby, including the Sorbonne. A Neighborhood associated with Artists and Intellectuals since the Middle Ages, the Latin Quarter still preserves its Bohemian Feel in its many Bookstores, Cafés, Quirky Boutiques, Theaters, Jazz Clubs and Bars.
Since its Creation, the Parcours Saint-Germain's Mission has been to bring together the Inhabitants, Users and Shops of the Famous District around a Cultural Event contributing to the Influence of Contemporary Art. Each year, the Parcours creates a Walk through twenty or so Selected Places, involving the Historical Heritage of Saint-Germain-des-Prés by inviting Artists to express themselves in the Partner Places.
For 20 years now, the Parcours Saint-Germain has been animating the District annually.... Under the Artistic Direction of Valéry-Rose PFEIFER and DSMNS Studio, the Book "Parcours Saint-Germain, 20 ans d’histoire" is available since this April 2022 at "La Librairie du Palais de Tokyo". Putting art in Shops? It was a Daring Gamble... Since then, the Parcours has evolved, as has the Link between Art and Fashion, which is now obvious... The Parcours Saint-Germain celebrates its 20th anniversary!
