When the sun sets over Saint-Germain-des-Prés, the neighborhood doesn't sleep: it transforms. The vaulted cellars come alive with jazz notes, theaters raise their curtains, cocktail bars light up their discreet neon signs.

The Caveau de la Huchette has been vibrating to the sound of jazz and swing since 1946. This 12th-century medieval cellar has hosted the greats: Memphis Slim, Art Blakey, Lionel Hampton.
