Overview

This tour stands out for its nuanced approach to Jewish Paris. In the Marais, one of the world’s oldest surviving Jewish quarters, you trace a community rooted in the thirteenth century and affectionately known in Yiddish as the Pletzl — “the little place.”
In Montmartre, you follow the creative trajectory of Jewish artists and intellectuals who transformed French modernism. Instead of a simple neighborhood walk, the tour weaves together architecture, immigration, culture, and memory, guided by someone who can interpret these layers with accuracy and care.

What's Included

  • More interactive experience for up to 9 persons
  • Public transport tickets
  • Visit to Le Marais and Montmartre neighborhoods
  • Indoor visit of the synagogues

This experience is exclusively for your group, with a local expert guide dedicated to your pace, your interests, and your questions.Begin in Le Marais, Paris’s historic Jewish quarter, shaped by centuries of Jewish presence, traditional businesses, religious life, and cafés that remain active today.

Agoudas Hakehilos Synagogue (pass by)

Visit the exterior of the Agoudas Hakehilos Synagogue, a landmark of Jewish Paris and a rare example of Art Nouveau synagogue architecture by Hector Guimard. Hear how waves of Eastern European Jewish immigration transformed this part of the city in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, shaping the community institutions, schools, and cultural life that endured here. (Interior visits not included.)

Memorial De La Shoah (pass by)

Walking deeper into the Marais, you stop at the Holocaust Memorial (Mémorial de la Shoah), seen from the exterior. Your guide shares the historical context of occupation, resistance, and remembrance, and how these chapters continue to shape Jewish identity and memory in Paris.
Read more

La Rue des Rosiers (pass by)

Continue along Rue des Rosiers, historically the heart of Jewish commercial and community life in the Marais. Bakeries, delis, and specialty shops line the street, reflecting traditions preserved over generations. Your guide explains how this area developed, changed, and rebuilt across the 20th century.

Hotel de Ville (pass by)

End the Marais segment near Hôtel de Ville, then continue to Montmartre by public transport. The short journey is seamless and gives you a moment to rest before discovering a very different chapter of Jewish life in Paris.

Montmartre

In Montmartre, explore the artistic chapter of Jewish Paris and the creative world that shaped early 20th-century modernism. This district attracted immigrant artists, writers, and musicians — including Amedeo Modigliani, Max Jacob, and Marc Chagall — who found community in its cafés, studios, and literary circles. Here, ambition and experimentation thrived, yet everyday life unfolded against a backdrop of rising nationalism, antisemitism, and political uncertainty across Europe. The stories of Montmartre stand in poignant contrast to the deeply rooted communal life of the Marais: one neighborhood grounded in tradition, the other in artistic reinvention. Many of the figures who animated Montmartre’s cultural scene would later face exile, persecution, or rupture during the Second World War, yet their legacy helped shape the trajectory of modern art and continues to define the mythology of Paris today.
