1
Shakespeare et compagnie
At this meeting point, we’ll take a step back in time to explore Sylvia Beach’s original bookstore and George Whitman’s vision of a 'socialist utopia.' You will discover the story of the 'Tumbleweeds' — adventurous travelers who are invited to stay in the shop in exchange for reading a book a day and helping out with daily tasks.

Cathedrale Notre-Dame de Paris
Crossing to Notre-Dame via Rue de la Cité.
We’ll focus on the “resurrection” of Notre-Dame, briefly recalling the 2019 fire and the remarkable restoration efforts that led to its reopening.

The bridge’s name comes from the 17th century, when a “double denier” toll was charged to help fund the nearby hospital, the Hôtel-Dieu. This will be covered while walking, without stopping.

Saint-Julien-le-Pauvre
One of the oldest churches in Paris, dating back to the 12th century. In the adjacent square, we’ll highlight the Robinia tree planted in 1601 — the oldest tree in the city — and enjoy one of the most beautiful views of Notre-Dame.
