The historical maps of the Hôtels Littéraires

Take a walk with Marcel Proust in the Paris of the Belle Époque, with Gustave Flaubert in Rouen at the end of the 19th century, or with Marcel Aymé in the Montmartre district of the 1950s.

These itineraries, based on period maps, take you on a quest to find these writers in the places where they lived, their successive homes, their good addresses and restaurants, their friends and their salons, not forgetting the literary places linked to their works and the emblematic cultural sites.

The maps were created by Hélène Montjean and Ursula Held.
