Le Mus\u00e9e des Egouts de Paris (The Paris Sewer Museum) is a fascinating little place, dedicated to a public service that we all take for granted. <\/strong> Sewers first came to Paris in the 11th century when King Philippe Auguste ordered that they be installed, though they were above ground and uncovered.\u00a0 Napoleon introduced the idea of covering them and when Haussmann began his large-scale renovations to Paris in the mid-nineteenth century, underground sewer tunnels were a large part of his plan.\u00a0 Victor Hugo dedicates a long passage to this innovation in his novel Les Mis\u00e9rables.\u00a0 Tourists have been visiting the sewer system since its completion, first in carts and boats, but since the 1970\u2019s, they have dedicated space, underneath the Quai d\u2019Orsay in the 7th arrondissement<\/a>, to see the history and stories behind the Paris sewer system.<\/p>\n

Since Le Mus\u00e9e des Egouts de Paris is located right on the Seine, New York Habitat accommodations in the 7th arrondissement<\/a>, near the museum are sure to not only be in a great neighborhood, but also offer fantastic views of the city.<\/p>\n
