Description
Here is a real haven of peace and quiet in the hustle and bustle of the capital!
The garden of the Musée de la Vie romantique lives up to its name. This private mansion in the New Athens district retraces the era of the artists of this movement, which included painters, actors, musicians and writers. Among them, the novelist George Sand, the composer and pianist Frédéric Chopin and the painter Eugène Delacroix, who came as a neighbour.
After discovering the museum's collections, extend your visit by taking a moment of rest in the small garden facing the house. Take the time to admire the colours of the garden according to the season, the yellow of the autumn leaves or the pink, purple and red touches of the roses, bellflowers and clematis. A picture worthy of the most beautiful romantic works of art that transports you to the countryside in the middle of Paris.
Who could imagine that the lively Pigalle district is just a few steps away?
In this secret garden, take a gourmet break in the charming tea room located in the old glass greenhouse. The Rose Bakery offers a variety of sweet and savoury treats all year round, to be enjoyed on the premises or, in fine weather, outside in the shade of the garden trees.
A peaceful place to relax!
