Le Caveau de la Huchette, Jazz club in Latin Quarter, Paris, France
Le Caveau de la Huchette occupies an underground stone cellar on rue de la Huchette, featuring multiple performance spaces across different levels.
The structure dates back to 1551, initially serving as a meeting place for Rosicrucians before transforming into a jazz venue in 1946.
The club has welcomed numerous American jazz musicians including Lionel Hampton, Count Basie, and Art Blakey, shaping Paris's music landscape.
The venue opens daily with performances at 21:30, 23:00, and 00:30, offering student discounts and beverages ranging from €6 to €85.
The underground venue inspired Alan Sytner to create The Cavern Club in Liverpool, which became the starting ground for The Beatles.

The Quartier Latin combines Roman ruins, medieval churches, and historic universities. The Arènes de Lutèce displays Roman origins, while the Sorbonne and Collège de France represent academic tradition. Between old libraries and botanical gardens, narrow streets lead to hidden squares and traditional cafés.
