Begin at the métro Gobelins, right outside the Manufacture des Gobelins. Originally set up in the mid-1500s as a fabric-dyeing workshop by the artisan Jean Gobelin, it was converted into the royal tapestry manufacturers by King Louis XIV’s minister Colbert in 1662. By the 18th century the Gobelins was famous throughout Europe, and today its tapestries can be found in museums around the world. Tour the workshops, which still operate using 17th-century weaving techniques.
