🧠 Fun fact
What makes it particularly special is its proximity to the iconic Sacré-Cœur Basilica, providing a picturesque backdrop that enhances the enchanting atmosphere of this beloved Parisian attraction. Riding the Carrousel de Saint-Pierre is like stepping back in time, capturing the whimsical spirit of Montmartre’s artistic heritage.

This is the scene where Amélie calls Nino on the public phone booth next to the carrousel in the Saint-Pierre square at the bottom of the Sacré Coeur. The telephone booth is no longer there.
This brief exchange on the phone at Sacre Coeur and at the Cafe des 2 Moulins are the only two times that Amélie and Nino exchange a dialogue during the course of the entire film.
The Sacré-Cœur Basilica is perched at the highest part of Montmarte hill district and visible from a distance like the Eiffel tower. Its construction was completed in 1914 and is considered the main tourist attraction of the Montmartre district.
