Clos Montmartre
South along rue des Saules is Clos Montmartre, a tiny vineyard that produces
around 800 bottles of wine a year, which are auctioned for charity in October.
Musée de Montmartre
This museum, at 12-14 rue Cortot, is housed in Montmartre's oldest building, a
17th-century house once occupied by Renoir, Utrillo and Raoul Dufy.
