“Attending a show at the Moulin Rouge offers an escape from the everyday and an incredible immersion into the glamour and grandeur of French Music Hall”, Claudine Van Den Bergh said. “The Belle Époque-inspired interior of our much loved windmill will transport guests to the era from which this timeless cabaret emerged.”

In the heart of Montmartre, the Moulin Rouge is best known as the birthplace of the instantly recognisable French Cancan.

Airbnb has worked with the renowned 19th-century French historian, Jean-Claude Yon, to authentically renovate the windmill, exactly as it would have been during its hay day.

"The Belle Époque era was a time when French culture and arts flourished – and no landmark is more iconic to that period than the Moulin Rouge. This secret room inside the cabaret’s famous windmill has been designed to take you on an authentic journey back in time to experience the French capital of arts and pleasures during a moment in history," Jean-Claude Yon, Historian and specialist of French Cultural and Social history of the 19th century, said.

The iconic windmill was first built in 1889 as a tribute to the site’s rural origins and it was then reconstructed three decades later following a fire. 

It was never opened to the public…until now.

Guests can request to book the three individual one-night stays, all for just €1 a night, on June 13, 20 and 27 beginning Tuesday, May 17.

You can book at 7:00 pm CEST (Central European Summer Time) which is 5 pm in the UK via airbnb.com/moulinrouge.
