You're standing at the Musée de La Poste, the museum of France's postal service, La Poste. You're right by Montparnasse station here, in the 15th arrondissement of Paris. Take a look at the front of the building. That façade was designed by André Chatelin when the building went up between 1969 and 1972. A museum about letters and stamps in a modern block like this one? Not what most people expect.
