There is a small [[vineyard]] in the Rue Saint-Vincent, which continues the tradition of wine production in the Île de France, and a [[wild garden]], occupied by [[midwife toad]]s, also in the Rue Saint-Vincent.<ref>Paris.fr, [https://www.paris.fr/lieux/jardin-sauvage-saint-vincent-1784 Jardin sauvage Saint-Vincent], accessed 12 May 2024</ref><ref>[[Paris Aéroport]], ''Paris Vous Aime Magazine'', No 13, avril-may-juin 2023, p. 95</ref> The vineyard yields about {{convert|500|litres}} of wine per year,<ref>{{cite web |title=Montmartre |url=https://www.travelsspots.com/discovering-the-charm-of-montmartre/ |website=Discovering the Charm of Montmartre}}</ref>

The [[Musée de Montmartre]] is in the house where the painters [[Maurice Utrillo]] and [[Suzanne Valadon]] lived and worked in second-floor studios. The house was [[Pierre-Auguste Renoir]]'s first Montmartre address. Many other personalities moved through the premises. The mansion in the garden at the back is the oldest hotel on Montmartre, and one of its first owners was Claude de la Rose, a 17th-century actor known as ''Rosimond'', who bought it in 1680. Claude de la Rose was the actor who replaced [[Molière]], and who, like his predecessor, died on stage.

Nearby, day and night, tourists visit such sights as [[Place du Tertre]] and the cabaret du [[Lapin Agile]], where the artists had worked and gathered. Many renowned artists, such as painter and sculptor [[Edgar Degas]] and film director [[François Truffaut]], are buried in the [[Cimetière de Montmartre]] and the [[Cimetière Saint-Vincent]]. Near the top of the butte, [[Espace Dalí]] showcases [[Surrealism|surrealist]] artist [[Salvador Dalí]]'s work. Montmartre is an officially designated historic district with limited development allowed in order to maintain its historic character.

An inclined railway, the [[Funiculaire de Montmartre]], operated by the [[Régie Autonome des Transports Parisiens|RATP]], ascends the hill from the south, while the Montmartre bus circles the hill.

Downhill to the southwest is the [[red-light district]] of [[Quartier Pigalle|Pigalle]]. That area is, today, largely known for a wide variety of stores specializing in instruments for rock music. There are also several concert halls, also used for rock music. The actual Moulin Rouge theatre is also in Pigalle, near the Blanche métro station.
