This district is generally associated with artists and intellectuals of all sorts. Since the 1920s the St Germain district has been the meeting place for students, artists and writers from the Left Bank. The district became very fashionable, especially due to the American press, who was delighted to discover that Jazz, an American style of music, was very much held in high esteem in the City of Lights, in fact more so than where it originated.
