In days of old, the hills of Montmartre were covered with vineyards that supplied most of Paris’ wine. Today the vineyards produce about 500 bottles per year The Romans called it Mons Mercurii, after erecting a hilltop shrine to their god of commerce. Medieval folks referred to it as Montmartre, or "Hill of Martyrs," after legend stated that their patron saint tucked his decapitated head under his arm and walked from this hill to a more comfortable resting spot north of Paris. In more modern times the village of Montmartre, at Paris’ highest point, is best known for the many painters who frequented its sidewalk café. Living and breathing their art and often trading it for a hot meal. Montmartre attracted such great artists as Picasso, Modigliani, Renoir, Manet, Toulouse Lautrec and Van Gogh. Walking around here it is easy to see the indelible mark from Montmartre’s colourful past. The narrow cobble stoned streets are still home to painters capitalising on the artists whose space they have taken on the Place du Tertre. Some of the cabarets once alive with song and young women dancing the cancan in Toulouse Lautrec’s paintings are still open. Two of the thirty windmills which ground the wheat grown on the butte in the 1600’s are still standing, and the last Paris surviving vineyards on Rue des Saules is still producing wine. Explore the village of Montmartre and see why its sloping streets are still the obsession of painters, photographers and tourists alike. Enjoy! 1 Table of contents Page 3.
