Four jaw-dropping Paris stories you’ve not heard before

Hi guys,

It’s quite the episode today – we’ve got Stefanie Kouatchet from the city hunt group Paris in Action revealing some of her favourite stories about Paris.

Each of these places are linked to a place in Paris you may have walked past without ever knowing the stories behind them.

Listen here:

Featuring:

The ‘Spiderman’ who stole five paintings from the Museum of Modern Art
