Ciné-Balade

Montmartre movie tour

Montmartre movie tour, a walk through an open-air cinema set in the company of Amélie Poulain, the most famous of Parisian girls.

With its old-village charm, Montmartre is one of the most filmed neighbourhoods of the capital. It has always inspired films that seek to represent old Paris and pay tribute to its artists.

Amélie Poulain, our guiding thread, will lead you through this rich history that combines painting, cinema, and literature, with both blockbusters and lesser-known films we’ll discover together thanks to many anecdotes, photos, and video clips on a tablet. A joyful walk off the beaten path to rediscover the Butte.
