Saint Germain des Pres

Formerly the epicentre for publishers and literature buffs, the Saint-Germain des Prés district became famous in the 20th century when it was a haunt of intellectuals. It was notably after the Second World War, at the Café de Flore and the Deux Magots that philosophers, poets, artists and writers like Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, Boris Vian, and Jacques Prévert enlivened the intellectual climate of the district. Today, Saint Germain des Prés retains the authentic charm of its 17th-century buildings. Rather than a meeting place for intellectuals, the area is now reputed for its designer, often luxury, boutiques, gourmet addresses and small and interesting streets ideal for a romantic stroll.
