Montmartre for Artists, Art, and the old Paris

A hill that reaches a height of about 130 meters (427 feet), located in the north of Paris in the eighteenth arrondissement, Montmartre has long been known as the premier artist's enclave in the city. The word Montmartre is translated to mean "mountain of the martyr" and was derived from the martyrdom of Saint Denis - the bishop of Paris - who was decapitated atop the hill in 250 AD. 

I see artisitc heritage, windmills, moulin rogue, concert posters, and post cards. 

Je vois patrimoine artisitc, moulins à vent , moulin rogue , affiches de concerts , et des cartes postales.
