A fantastic and undeservedly little-known collection of the great surrealist artist's often overlooked sculptural works. Those travellers seeking a more authentic experience should be warned that the majority of works here are reproductions, and that this "museum" is more appropriately considered as a for-profit, tourist-oriented homage to the artist rather than a carefully curated collection of original work. To find it, head up to Sacré Cœur and stand facing it and take a left. Keep your eye out for small Dali signs.
The Dalí Paris is a museum exhibition in France devoted to Salvador Dalí consisting mainly of sculptures and engravings. The museum, near the Place du Tertre in the Montmartre district of Paris, was inaugurated in 1991, and it has around 300 original artworks. The collection features mainly three-dimensional sculptures of Dalí's best known surrealistic paintings.

Numerous artists paint portraits of tourists and also sell their paintings.
The museum is located in a 17th century house with a garden, and features the history and culture of Montmartre. Several famous artists had lived in the house including Renoir.
The sculpture of a man walking through a store wall like a ghost was inspired by a novel by Marcel Aymé about a civil servant who takes revenge on people who humiliated him after he discovered he could pass through walls.
Montmartre has a small vineyard which can be seen through a chain-linked fence. One of its products (vin Clos Montmartre) can be purchased at the nearby Musée de Montmartre.
Built in 1717, the windmill is now part of a restaurant of the same name, and is easily visible from the street.
