La Samaritaine

La Samaritaine stands out as one of Paris’s most famous department stores, housed in a breathtaking Art Nouveau building that first opened its doors in 1870. The department store is well known for its architectural elegance and historic charm, which make it a remarkable spot in the heart of the city.
