Montmartre l'âge d'or : mystères racontés par un comédien｜France

If you yawn, you get a refund.

A story is worth remembering only when it is told well.

Forget the dry history lecture. Discover Montmartre through the eyes, voice, and dark humor of a professional actor and storyteller—a true Parisian who lived in Montmartre and knows its hidden corners, secret stories, and forgotten characters.

Your guide is also the creator of the highly successful “Stories & Mysteries” tour at Père Lachaise Cemetery in Paris, bringing history to life through theater, storytelling, and a pronounced taste for dark humor.

Hear the dramas, scandals, and sordid stories that unfolded in Montmartre during Paris’s Golden Age. Discover painters, jealousy, murder, deception, absinthe, legendary cabarets, and the extraordinary characters who made this district famous.

Stop in front of the Petite Maison Rose and uncover the story of its owner, whose love affair led to murder. See the last home of a great musician who descended into madness through alcohol and became obsessed with collecting thousands of umbrellas.

Discover the tale of a cursed singer and her many dead husbands. Follow the footsteps of artists, lovers, eccentrics, murderers, gangsters, and cabaret legends as you explore the darker side of Montmartre.

You’ll not only hear the stories, but also enjoy a beautiful walk away from the tourist crowds, through hidden corners such as Fog Alley, birthplace of the painter Auguste Renoir.

Between history, theater, mystery, and dark humor, let your actor guide reveal the secrets hiding behind the postcard-perfect streets of Montmartre.

Passion. Love. Betrayal. Alcohol. Madness. The Moulin Rouge.
