There are few places in the solar system more cinematic than this extraordinary and intimate house of swing and syncopation occupying a restored Renaissance defence tower dating to 1493. Considered one of Europe's top jazz clubs, it draws ace talent from around the world – especially the USA and Brazil – and seeing a show here is a privilege indeed.
Go on a Monday, when entrance is free and a €5 glass of wine nets you a buffet dinner with a world-class jazz soundtrack. And always reserve – it holds but a paltry 150 people.
