Montmartre sheds light on the macabre on every corner A story for every house number. French local historian and collector Jean-François Plachat has spent the last quarter century collecting anecdotes about his neighborhood in Montmartre. A Jewish tailor gunned down by the Gestapo, death by asbinthe, a shoot-out between two pimps…a booklet for the curious and macabre-minded sheds a different kind of light on the Sacre Coeur and its famous neighborhood. A natural sound version of an AFPTV report.
