It's raining a lot lately so nothing's better than getting from point A to point B under a nice passageway! This passage way is named after the architect and Count Jouffroy.


Opened in 1845, it is the first Parisian passage way to be built entirely with metal and glass, only a few decoration are made of wood. If you visit the Musée Grévin, you will also find yourself in this passage as you exit.
