The Latin Quarter has long been associated to the Sorbonne University, one of the oldest in the world. This is where students and teachers from all over Europe met, speaking Latin, the international language. Hence the name of the neighborhood today.

Going left bank the itinerary will pass by Paris’s oldest tree, two old and unusual churches. But also, Medieval narrow winding streets full of lively restaurants, varied boutiques and countless bookstores.

The Latin Quarter spreads over a hill lined with blocks from Sorbonne University and other schools. It is topped by a superb 17th century chapel. It is also where the splendid Middle Ages art museum can be found. The Medieval mansion was built over huge Roman baths from the first century AD, still visible today.

On top of the hill, the massive Pantheon building proudly stands. Built as a church, it was quickly changed to welcome the great people worthy of France.
