Visite guidée : Les plus beaux passages couverts

Passages are shopping and strolling arcades that weave between Parisian buildings. They enjoyed dazzling success at the beginning of the nineteenth century..

Only around twenty of them remain today, and they retain all their bygone charm.

Véro-Dodat, Vivienne, Colbert, Panoramas, Jouffroy, Verdeau... each place has its own magic and clientele.

Let's head off to meet the celebrities of the passages: engraver Stern, Balzac, Vidocq... and a few magical spots: the Musée Grévin, the Théâtre des Variétés... and of course, the Palais-Royal where it all began.
