A little nature before entering Paris.
Magnificent houses boat all the way.
The history of Saint-Germain Island is dotted with successive battles against uncontrolled urbanization and industrialization of the place.
Saint-Germain Island is above all agricultural land. The construction of the Central Comptoir of Crédit Bonnard et Cie, then of the Agricultural Pavilion for the Universal Exhibition of 1867, began the transformation of the site.
We will follow the island of Saint Germain to Issy les Moulineaux

The first island on our route. Built in place of the former Renault factory on Seguin Island in Boulogne-Billancourt, the Seine Musicale is preparing to open its doors and rebalance the Parisian cultural offering by establishing itself in the west of the capital
the Musical Seine. The other room, the largest with 4,000 seats and 6,000 standing, will accommodate amplified concerts, musicals or musical theater. Choplin has the ambition to make it a “destination place and permanent musical celebration” and intends to use the experience of his stay at the Châtelet to “give an identity to this place”.
An incredible concert space on an island!
We will discover the locals' "House boats" on the water.

Magnificent Statue of Liberty!
Installed and inaugurated in 1889 at the Grenelle bridge, it then faced the Eiffel Tower and pointed its torch in the direction of the Elysée; she will finally be moved with her back to the Grande Dame in 1937 in order to face New York where her big sister is located.
We pass in front of the Statue of Liberty.

The Eiffel Tower was built to be one of the main attractions of the Universal Exhibition in Paris in 1889. Placed under the sign of industrial progress and large constructions of iron and steel, the Universal Exhibition of 1889 occupied the entire Field -from March to Paris.
We pass in front of the Eiffel Tower

One of the most beautiful bridges in Paris.
A remarkable cast steel bridge, 160 meters long. As the specifications predicted, the Alexandre III Bridge is perfectly decorated. 32 bronze candelabra (these beautiful lampposts with several branches), 4 pillars 17 meters high topped with golden crowns, a rich cast iron decoration in the Louis XIV style and beautiful lion statues at each end magnify this bridge, which has been classified as a historic monument since 1975.
We will go under the bridge.

A museum in a station!
Until then, it was rather disused convents and churches, or even old palaces, which were thus reconverted, not without difficulties. This time it is an industrial building. Yes, moreover, it will not be adapted “piecemeal” but delivered in three years, turnkey, ready to operate, to the team responsible for bringing it to life. Built by Victor Laloux in 1900 in a style closer to that of the Second Empire than to Art Nouveau, the Orsay station has come a long way, exactly from annihilation.
Passage in front of the museum

A huge museum
While the court of the Sun King moved to Versailles, the Palais du Louvre was occupied by nobles, intellectuals and artists who took up residence there. The latter made a proposal to the king for a museum project. Louis XVI liked this idea and began the development work. It was the French Revolution that precipitated the opening of the Grande Galerie to the public.

The oldest bridge in Paris.
The construction was decided in 1577 by King Henry III who appointed a commission responsible for ensuring the smooth running of the work. A year later, the first stone of the bridge was laid by the king himself, in the presence of the queen mother Catherine de Medici and the king's wife, Louise de Lorraine. The work will continue until 1588.

The famous bridge where tourists have put too many padlocks!
The construction of the bridge lasted 3 years, between 1801 and 1804. The architects of the time imagined it as the basis of a hanging garden.
It is the first metal bridge in Paris, made of cast iron with nine arches, and from that time it was baptized with the name it bears today.
Magnificent moment on the boat

The Île de la Cité is the cradle of Paris, where the initial core of Lutetia developed.
Over time, in the shelter of its fortifications, the civil, military and religious powers of the region were established there and then developed.

After the year 1000, the Capetian kings built a first Royal Palace (which became the current Palace of Justice).
The bishops of Paris built Notre-Dame Cathedral. From that moment on, the Ile de la Cité was no longer sufficient to accommodate all the inhabitants. They then established themselves on the island of Saint Louis and on both banks of the Seine.
We will follow the two islands of Cité and Saint Louis.

We will pass near the Pont Marie.
Parisians' favorite walking route.
The Marie Bridge was born at the beginning of the 17th century, from the royal desire to create a new traffic route between the right bank and the University of the left bank, and to exploit still virgin land. At the same time as him, the entire island of Saint-Louis is opening up to urban planning.

For a long time, Île Saint-Louis was made up of two unused islets, separated by a channel and which belonged to the canons of Notre-Dame. They were called Notre-Dame Island and Vaches Island, the latter name testifying to the absence of urbanization on these lands.

End point, drop off, in front the statue of Liberty.
