Introduction
Montmartre Square is located on the west side of Sacré-Cœur Basilica and used to be the center of the ancient village of Montmartre. Although the square itself doesn't have any famous landmarks and is just an ordinary rural square, it has attracted many renowned artists, such as the Spanish painter Salvador Dalí and Pablo Picasso. Since the 18th century, this artistic square has been a gathering place for plein air painters. Throughout the year, as long as the weather is good, the square is filled with various painters and tourists, creating a bustling market-like scene. There is also the Dalí Museum (ESPACE DALI) near the square, which exhibits his works. Address Place du Tertre 75018 Paris, France
