This time you've decided to conquer the 14th arrondissement of Paris, and you're right! From the Montparnasse Tower to Alesia, via Denfert Rochereau, here are the best spots in this Parisian district, as well as the not-to-be-missed nights out.

Paris's 14th arrondissement is a hybrid Parisian district, at times family-oriented, at times artistic and often very lively. The Tour Montparnasse stands proudly, offering the best view of Paris from its 210-metre height, while not far away, the Lion de Denfert stands like a sentinel, jealously guarding the dreaded entrance to the catacombs of Paris.

You can also visit the Fondation Cartier, for art lovers, or the Paris catacombs, to learn all about the city's history and cool off in summer. You can also visit theInstitut Giacometti to delve into the world of this famous artist, or the Musée de la Libération de Paris - Musée du Général Leclerc - Musée Jean Moulin to brush up on French history and visit one of the capital's oldest bunkers.

In short, there's a lot to do and visit in the 14th arrondissement of Paris, so if you'd like to discover the best addresses in this hyperactive district, this is the place to go!
