Located in the 5th district of Paris, the Rue Mouffetard is one of the oldest streets of the city. From the Gallo-Roman times, it was the « Italian road » leading to Rome. Throughout history, it was very crowded. With the development of the Latin Quarter and the Sorbonne, students began to occupy the place and moved into the small pensions.

Very lively both day and night, it is pleasant to stroll in the Rue Mouffetard. Many restaurants, boutiques and small shops follow one after the other. It never ceased to cultivate a lifestyle that attracted some popular writers including Hemingway.

It starts at the nice Place de la Contrescarpe, slopes gently down from the Montagne Sainte-Geneviève -which is a hill in the center of the city, on the left bank of the Seine at the heart of the Latin Quarter- to the Church of Saint-Médard, where a daily market of fruits and vegetables, and food shops such as bakers, butchers, cheese makers, fishmongers… all offer a wide range of fresh produce.

When you will stand before the Church of St. Medard, remember to watch the picturesque decorated facade of a building listed historical monument.
