At one time, the 13th arrondissement was a thriving middle-class neighborhood and was complete with factories, warehouses and other industrial buildings.<\/p>\n<p><em>Les Frigos<\/em>\u00a0originated as one of these warehouses. It was built in 1921 and was used to store products that had to be kept cold, hence its namesake. Thanks to this, the walls are thick and well insulated, making it easy for musicians and rowdy artists to do as they please without being too intrusive.<\/p>\n<p>After shutting down in 1971, the warehouse became a vast wasteland of metal and decay. It stayed that way for nearly nine years until being taken over by a small group of squatters in 1980. It was then slowly transformed into the unique artistic space that it is today.<\/p>\n<p>There are now around 100 artists living and working in <em>Les<\/em> <em>Frigos.<\/em>\u00a0Hidden within its fortress-like walls are theaters, workshops, musical studios, caf\u00e9s and gardens.

I would assume that it is not always like this &#8211; when the space is open to visitors I imagine it to be swarming with people &#8211; but when I went, besides the occasional opening of the heavy metal doors, all was quiet.<\/p>\n<p>The inside walls resembled their outdoor counterparts: covered with art and witty political quips. The corridors were long and broke off into different rooms and chambers. Needless to say I felt a little out of place inside the extensive building. There was a nagging feeling that I was somewhere I wasn&#8217;t supposed to be.<\/p>\n<p>My feeling was quickly proven to be unfounded. Everyone I met was overtly friendly. I wandered into the space&#8217;s caf\u00e9 and was welcomed by two women who explained to me all about the history and the current problems facing <em>Les Frigos.<\/em>\u00a0For a space named after refrigerators, it expelled a warm atmosphere.<\/p>\n<h4>Workshops and things to do inside <em>Les Frigos<\/em><\/h4>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-14138\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/chuttersnap-316496-unsplash.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"6016\" height=\"4016\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/chuttersnap-316496-unsplash.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/chuttersnap-316496-unsplash-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/chuttersnap-316496-unsplash-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/chuttersnap-316496-unsplash-1024x684.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/chuttersnap-316496-unsplash-816x545.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 6016px) 100vw, 6016px\" \/><em>Photo by\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/photos\/YOwiXX0ebJA?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\">chuttersnap<\/a>\u00a0on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/search\/photos\/music-studio?utm_source=unsplash&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=creditCopyText\">Unsplash<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n<p>There is a large concrete staircase that leads up the five stories.

I was welcomed to the music floor by the wavering smell of marijuana and old cigarette smoke. After finding its source, the native man of Les Frigos told me about the jazz forum that was taking place and offered the direction in which I was to go.<\/p>\n<p>My system of discovery was relatively unsophisticated, and I must have looked like a total dork as I poked my head through each door, and then, upon seeing it occupied, I would mutter a short s<em>alut <\/em>and\u00a0retreat. It worked though.<\/p>\n<p>I quickly found the music chambers containing everything from baby grand pianos, counter bass, to drums. I was given a tour of the music rooms by a guitarist who was practicing there. The studios are open to the public and are as cheap as five euros for one session.<\/p>\n<p><em>The sessions last for 1 hour.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Along with the studios,\u00a0<em>Les Frigos\u00a0<\/em>also\u00a0offers various courses in music.
