Look for parking in Montmartre

Montmartre is recognised as Paris’ most famous district and, in fact, it is one of the most visited areas of the capital. Looking out over the city from the Montmartre hill, you can see a selection of museums and theatres such as the famous Moulin Rouge, Montmartre really is one of the city’s must-see places.

That’s all well and good, but where should you choose to park in Montmartre? Parclick makes it easy! There are three car parks, in particular, that we recommend:

• Montmartre; north of the Butte Montmartre and Place du Tertre, about 6 minutes away from this cheap Paris car park.
• Anvers-Montmartre; south of the Basilique du Sacre-Coeur and only a few minutes from the cable car which climbs Montmartre hill; very close to the Trianon, La Cigale and the Élysée Montmartre, on the Boulevard de Rochechouart.
• If you are going to Moulin Rouge, we recommend Clichy Montmartre, which is open 24 hours a day, from where you can walk to the most famous cabaret in Paris.

 

Montmartre district

From the Sacré-Coeur de Montmartre to the Moulin Rouge

Montmartre is located in the north of Paris, near Gare du Nord and Gare Saint-Lazare, in the 18th arrondissement of Paris, one of the most famous of the capital. The Basilique du Sacré-Coeur is on Montmartre hill and overlooks the rest of the city, most notably Louise-Michel square which lies at the foot of the hill.

However, although the Sacre-Coeur is the most famous monument in the area, it is far from being the only place worth visiting. On Montmartre hill, you can discover Saint-Pierre church, next to Calvaire cemetery, or various museums and galleries, such as Montmartre museum or l’Espace Dali. You could also take a look at Place du Tertre, in the middle of what used to be the centre of Montmartre, when it was a village.

Surely you know that Moulin Rouge is located close to Montmartre, but don’t think this cabaret is the only worthwhile one in this neighborhood. There are plenty of other theatres and shows you should see!

For example, you’ll find several venues on Boulevard de Rochechouart, such as La Cigale, Élysée-Montmartre, Le Trianon, or the Boule Noir which are all inspired by nineteenth century cabarets.

If you want to go to a cabaret in Montmartre, you have plenty of famous options: Le Chat Noir, le Lapin Agile, Moulin de la Galette, or the cabaret of Patachou, where Georges Brassens started and where Edith Piaf sang for the last time in public.
