  Caillebotte at Pont de l'Europe

  Painted 1876. The cast-iron bridge over the Saint-Lazare train tracks, with its X-pattern girders, was new when Caillebotte painted it — a symbol of the modern industrial city. The bridge has been rebuilt but the cast-iron pattern is faithful to the original.

  Stand on the south-east corner of the bridge, looking down toward the tracks — that's the Caillebotte angle. The original painting is at the Musée d'Orsay, ten minutes' walk south.

• Where the Writers Livedstop 5 of 6 · 510 m

  Proust, 102 Boulevard Haussmann

  Proust lived in apartment on the second floor from 1907 to 1919 — the period when he wrote most of À la recherche du temps perdu. He had the bedroom walls lined with cork to silence street noise, slept by day, wrote by night, hardly went out. The cork bedroom itself is preserved at the Musée Carnavalet (4 km east).

  The actual building is private offices now, with a discreet plaque. To see the cork-lined bedroom, you have to go to the Musée Carnavalet in the Marais — the room was transferred there piece by piece in 1971.

Within a few minutes' walk

• PoussinWine bar / cave à manger€€ · 6 minJudith Cercós, a sommelière, and Ludovic Dubois run this small cave à manger on French-Iberian lines, the plates fine and the list leaning hard south. The bottles outnumber the seats, which tells you what the place is really about.
• SalicorneMarket bistro€€ · 7 minCarol Pender cooked at Mokonuts before taking this narrow Batignolles room, where lunch is a handful of dishes weighted toward vegetables and shellfish and rewritten daily. The kitchen does more with a beetroot than most do with a rib of beef.
• Grand Hôtel ChicagoBoutique hotel€€ · 8 minA four-star on rue de Rome behind Gare Saint-Lazare, on the Batignolles edge — stylish rooms, a buffet breakfast, métro at the door. Soundproofing is the known weakness, so the courtyard side is the room to request.
• Joli Môme BatignollesBoutique hotel€€ · 8 minOpened in late 2025 on rue des Batignolles and run as a household rather than a hotel: a communal breakfast table of local produce, a free homemade afternoon tea and an evening wine-and-cheese apéritif thrown in.
• Musée CernuschiFree Asian-art museum€ · 10 minHenri Cernuschi brought back archaic Chinese bronzes and, from Japan, the two-metre eighteenth-century bronze Buddha of Meguro that now anchors the stairwell. The permanent rooms — Neolithic jades, Han figures, Tang ceramics — are free, and the mansion sits against Parc Monceau.
• BodrumTurkish / kebab€ · 11 minThe meat is veal breast, boned and cut and marinated in a spice blend the owners trace to a grandfather's kitchen in Turkey — no turkey filler, which is the usual giveaway. People will tell you it's the best kebab in Paris; it is at least very good.
