An ethereal light diffuses through an open gate into one of the small courtyards hidden behind an historic passage.

Hidden passage

This small courtyard, behind gates and one of three, was part of an ancient passageway once blocked by remnants of the Philippe Augustus wall. The modern glass structure is an artist's studio.
