| The Moulin Rouge
Windmills were set up on the
hill of Montmartre, the highest point near the City of Paris. The Moulin Rouge, built in
1885, is the most famous one, immortalised by Henri de Toulouse Lautrec. It became a mucic
hall in 1900, owing most of its fame to the French Can-Can, a popular dance of the 20th
century.
