Montreuil: Strikingly Parisian and Otherwise
Montreuil is a commune neighboring the Bois de Vincennes park of France, in the eastern suburbs of Paris. Since the settlement began as dwellings erected around a minute monastery, the name denoting a "little monastery". The town is notable for the "Peach Walls" of the royal court as well as ceramics and frescoes in the state school. Approaching are Paris Orly Airport (ORY/LFPO) 21 km off and Paris Charles De Gaulle Airport (CDG/LFPG) at 23 kilometers.
Best Time to Visit
The typical swing of temperatures at Montreuil goes from 35°F (1.667°C) to 78°F (25.556°C), summer being agreeable if curt. The super cold winter is windy and stretched out. Within Seine-Saint-Denis in the last weekend of April and first weekend of May, the Banlieues Bleues Festival of jazz music runs and Montreuil, France accommodations abound.
