My Great Grandfather ( Woolf Friedberg ) married here in 1879 ? (5639 on the Ketouba). We think he…read morecame from Russia via Austria ( Vienna ) and then settled in London and became a naturalised British Citizen. We don't know why he married in Paris as there were many Synagogues in East London. Could the couple have been on their way to London as immigrants ? It is fortunate for all of his descendants that he made the decision to continue his journey. I have the rather battered Ketouba, all in Hebrew . The registration number on the document is either 353 or 1353. Woolf Friedberg's son, my Grandfather , Barnett Friedberg, was born not long after the wedding, in East London. He became a Fleet Street journalist and had seven children. He has many descendants both here in England and in France where I lived for several years and where my brother and his family now live. This is the first time I've looked up the synagogue on the internet. What a beautiful place and how new it must have been when they married !

Sacre Couer on the hill of Monmartre provides the best 360 degree views of the city of Paris,…read moreparticularly if you venture to climb the 300 steps to the top dome (for 7 euros). Entrance to the basilica is free, and it's opened from 6am until 10:30pm. It was built with the "self cleaning" Chateau-Lando stone from France, and the rain and weathering keeps it white. Crowds linger on the steps and around the overlook areas. Vendors try to sell you cheap locks to put on the surrounding fencing (the locks covering the fences-even with signs saying "no locks permitted" are an eyesore and should be removed). Security line checks are long and in February 2026 we waited about 30 or 40 mins to enter. I can only imagine what chaos it is in the high season. The basicalla is beautful inside and well worth checking out, although quiet and repect are required as there are masses going on. For this visit the crypt was not available to enter, which was highly disappointing There is also a small train trolly like vehicle right outside that will take you on a 30 minute ride around Monmartre for 12 euros. We thought it was a bit cheesey and touristy at first, but it really was worth it! Sacre couer is majestically beautiful!

Free to visit, lots of people, the line to get in looked long but it went fast. Beautiful basilica,…read morenice view, I heard this was a great place to watch the sunset. You can take a taxi & get dropped off at the top, right at the entrance. If you take the metro, you'll have to walk up 222 steps or pay a few euros to take the Montmartre Funicular up, a 2 min ride. We spent about 30min there.
