The 6th arrondissement of Paris, around Saint-Germain-des-Prés and the jardin du Luxembourg. Google Maps.
The 6th arrondissement is organised around Saint-Germain-des-Prés, whose abbey dates back to the 6th century and stands as one of the oldest religious and intellectual centres of the Left Bank. The district grew denser over the centuries around its churches, courtyards and narrow streets inherited from the Ancien Régime.
In the 19th and 20th centuries, the area became a centre of publishing, art galleries and literary life, with its cafes associated with the writers and philosophers of the post-war years. The jardin du Luxembourg, created in the 17th century for Marie de Médicis, shapes the south of the arrondissement and remains one of its major landmarks.
Today, the 6th mixes Haussmann-era and older buildings, institutions such as the Sénat and the Institut de France, and a dense street life. This combination of central location, heritage and prestige makes it the most highly valued arrondissement in Paris.
The arrondissement attracts a wealthy clientele, both French and international, seeking a central pied-à-terre or a main residence in a heritage setting. The share of foreign buyers and second homes is high. The scarce supply and firm prices steer part of the demand towards small units, easier to resell, and towards exceptional properties for the highest budgets.
The average price in Paris 6e is 14 939 €/m² for an apartment (actual DVF transactions, notarised sales), within a range of 12 158 to 17 163 €/m² depending on the building, the floor and the condition.

Yes. The arrondissement is served by metro lines 4, 10 and 12, and by RER B at Luxembourg, with direct access to central Paris and the mainline stations.
