“A street named after a departure.” That’s what the Rue du Départ is called. You might think it’s a bit curious, right? Why would a street be named after a departure? Well, this street, nestled in the heart of Paris, was once right next to the bustling Gare Montparnasse. You see, back when the station was right here, the Rue du Départ was at the level of the departure platforms. It was a lively place full of people rushing on their journeys. Today, the Gare Montparnasse has moved further south but the Rue du Départ still stands, a silent witness to the hustle and bustle of Paris’s past. You might notice the Montparnasse Tower nearby, which took over the old station site. The tower’s height stands as a symbol of Paris’s ambition, while Rue du Départ, now a quiet side street, whispers of a time when travel was a bit less glamorous and a lot more exciting.
