Saint-Fargeau is a station of the Paris Metro, serving Line 3bis. The station owes its name to its location under Place Saint-Fargeau, which was named after the politician Louis-Michel le Peletier, marquis de Saint-Fargeau who had participated in the French Revolution and was assassinated in 1793, allegedly for voting for the execution of Louis XVI. Saint-Fargeau station is situated 230 metres southwest of Résidence Les Tourelles.

The 20th arrondissement of Paris lies to the east of the centre and represents an old working-class area now in rapid transformation. The main drawing card here for tourists is the Père-Lachaise Cemetery, though, for travellers who are interested in music and culture, this relatively gritty area is probably going to be one of your main night-crawling areas. Père Lachaise Cemetery is situated 1½ km southwest of Résidence Les Tourelles.
