Welcome to the Newto News for March of 2026. My name is Zack Cockfield, and my team and I created Newtomedia as a way for visitors or new residents to get information about a city. Each month we bring together resources that will update you on the history, amenities, culture, future opportunities and all other things inside a city that make it unique. We also hope to be a resource for connecting you with people and businesses that can help you live a better life. If you find our efforts useful, please click on the links to get more information!

Paris, the capital city of France, has a rich and colorful history dating back over 2,000 years. Originally founded by the Gauls in the 3rd century BC, Paris was later conquered by the Romans in the 1st century AD and became known as “Lutetia.” In the Middle Ages, Paris grew in importance as a center of commerce, culture, and religion. The city became the seat of the French monarchy in the 10th century and remained the political and cultural capital of France for centuries. During the French Revolution in the late 18th century, Paris played a central role in shaping the course of European history. The city saw the rise and fall of multiple revolutions and the establishment of the French Republic. In the 19th and 20th centuries, Paris continued to thrive as a global cultural and artistic hub, attracting writers, artists, and intellectuals from around the world. Today, Paris is known for its iconic landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre Museum, and Notre Dame Cathedral, and remains a symbol of French culture and history.
