W is for Wall. In this episode, I take you for an exciting and historic walk through the Left Bank of Paris to discover hidden vestiges of the Philippe Auguste Wall.
This episode marks the end of my wall trilogy. The first part of the trilogy covered the right bank of Paris, the second part was the 5th arrondissement.
Today, we're focused on the sixth arrondissement and I'll take you into libraries, restaurants, hotels, offices, and car parks in search of this elusive 800-year-old wall.
You'll hear the voice of Florian-Élie Vaz from the Officine Universelle Buly (the perfume place featuring the tower). Find their perfume emporium online here.
