Le Moulin de la Galette
More than an institution, the former "Blute-fin" is a monument, with its heroic legend, in 1814, during the siege of Paris by the Cossacks, the last of four brothers of a dynasty of millers recorded since 1621, the Debray, eventually cut up and nailed to the wings of his mill after a desperate defense. Under the Restoration, his son turns the building into a ballroom, decorated mainly composed of garden trellis painted green. The atmosphere is casual and the clientele more popular than in other institutions, as evidenced by the Renoir painting, painted in 1876, "Le Bal du Moulin de la Galette". After various up and downs the former "Blute-fin" was saved a 1979.]
