Au Lapin Agile

Montmartre & Northern Paris


Named after Le Lapin à Gill, a mural of a rabbit jumping out of a cooking pot by caricaturist André Gill, which can still be seen on the western exterior wall, this rustic cabaret venue was favoured by artists and intellectuals in the early 20th century and traditional chansons are still performed here. The evening-long show includes singing and poetry.
