Top 5 Souvenir Stores of Montmartre

1. Montmartre Village for authentically French souvenirs

Montmartre Village is a souvenir shop that takes its name from the fact that Montmartre used to be a village apart from the rest of Paris.

Owner Cathy’s family has owned the building for years, and they actually used to run a small grocery store out of it. Today, Montmartre Village specialises in souvenirs! It’s truly a treasure trove of items to bring back home with you.

Most of Cathy’s products boast the label “Made in France,” which is rare these days. Choose from bags, miniature porcelain figures, jewellery and treats from Maxim’s, a famous Parisian restaurant!

Opening hours: Every day 9:30am-12am

Address: 11 Rue du Mont-Cenis, 75018 Paris

Paris Collection is a great place to find souvenirs, but you won’t feel like you’re in a typical souvenir shop when you step inside. It’s a very spacious shop, and the products are very well organized. This feels more like a clothing store than a souvenir bazar!

The shop has it’s own, you guessed it, collection of clothing. Each t-shirt, sweatshirt, hat and purse bears the cute Paris Collection logo. This should be your go to if you’re shopping for family and friends that have a more upscale taste, but still want a little something from your time in Paris!

Their prices are also very reasonable, and here you’ll find great pieces like crewneck sweatshirts that say “Parisienne” across the front. My favorite product has got to be their tote bags!

Practical information

Opening hours: Every day 9:30am-9pm

Address: 8 Rue de Steinkerque, 75018 Paris

Metro station: Anvers

3. St. Pierre de Montmartre for classic souvenirs

If you’re looking for classic souvenirs like keychains, postcards, posters and shot glasses, St. Pierre de Montmartre is where you should head. I have a few friends that collect shot glasses from different destinations all over the world, and I love this idea!

They also carry magnets, tote bags, drawings, t-shirts, kitchen supplies, figurines, and snow globes alike, all featuring Paris motifs, of course.

The shop takes its name from the Saint-Pierre church, and is located just next door to the Place du Tertre, which is known for its bistros and the artists that set up camp there. I’ll be giving you more information about the Pace du Tertre coming up, as its another great place to go for souvenirs!

Practical information

Opening hours: Every day 9am-7:30pm, Friday until 6pm

Address: 2 Rue du Mont-Cenis, 75018 Paris

Pylones Tardieu also has a selection of handblown glass objects, which includes rings, necklaces and earrings, all of which are hand designed and handmade!

5. Place du Tertre for handmade souvenirs

Place du Tertre isn’t a souvenir shop per se, but I wanted to include it on my list! What’s a better souvenir than a hand drawn or hand painted piece of artwork from Paris?! I would love to get this as a gift, and I’ve been known to do just that for my loved ones’ birthdays!

The place itself is located just 300 meters away from the Sacré Coeur Basilica, and is some people think of the Place du Tertre as the heart of Montmartre. It is a bit of a tourist trap, but I always try to take visitors here anyways. There’s just something about wandering its cobblestones and checking out the artists work that takes me back in time.

You’ll find plenty of art to choose from here, whether it be caricatures, paintings, or drawings. Try to strike up a conversation with the artists, they usually have some pretty cool backstories, and its nice to have a little bit of history behind the souvenir you’re going to purchase!

Head here for souvenirs that you want to keep on display for years to come.

Practical information

Opening hours: Every day. The Place is open 24/7 as it is a public place, but the artists hours vary. Try to get there in the morning or afternoon!

Address: Place du Tertre, 75018 Paris

Metro station: Abbesses / Lamarck – Caulaincourt
