ABSTRACT
The auberge de la cloche is in the heart of the Latin Quarter, just off the Place Saint-Michel. It is conveniently situated midway between the Ile de la Cité (for sightseers, Notre-Dame Cathedral, La Sainte-Chapelle, and the gruesome Conciergerie) and the newly-restored Musée de Cluny, on the Boulevard Saint-Michel. Among the famous objets d’art, sculpture, pottery and tapestries of the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, that have recently been re-installed in the Museum, there is the celebrated series of XVI-century tapestries (woven in the Loire Valley) known as “La Dame à la Licorne”, which are now displayed in an original and very artistic setting.
