Square Jean-Bidaut, 18 rue de la Lune

A guided tour through Paris' dark world of crime, monsters, and killers…\n\nWhat is a butcher, in both senses of the word? And what is an ogress then? All the senses of these two words will be explored along the walk.\nWe will discuss criminals and crimes, but also landmark policing cases that changed the course of justice. We will also talk about actual butchers and how the meat trade was managed, as well as the emergence of hygiene measures. We will also touch on the history of medicine, and much more!\n\nAudience: Adults.
