The 100 best doors on the Ile Saint-Louis in Paris

I spent the past few days walking around the Ile Saint-Louis in Paris. If you’ve never heard of it before, it’s the small island in the middle of the Seine, more or less in the centre of Paris.

And I noticed the island was home to an extraordinary number of great doors and doorways.

Here are the 100 I liked the most.

Note: I didn’t write down the addresses, but it takes less than an hour to walk every street on the island – so if you really want to find one I’m sure you’ll manage 😉

Click the images to make them bigger and happy strolling (or should that be scrolling…).

That’s it for the photos! If you want a closer look at the doors, here’s a Walk Show video I made on the island a day after I took these photos.

And if you’re a real door fan like I am, here’s my long walk along the best Paris street for doors: Rue de Varenne in the 7th arrondissement.

And in case you’re new around here, my main gig here is as a podcaster. If you want to hear my episode about this island, where I interview a man who has lived here since the nineties, click play below.
