Is sport part of our heritage? Of course it is! The Tour de France, pétanque,fencing, French boxing, motor sports, pelote basque... It's all part of our history, our culture and our national pride!

In Paris and the Ile-de-France region, numerous sites are offering visits to sports centers, or activities that will get our shirts wet. Let yourself be tempted by these unusual and exceptional events, and (re)discover the Paris region through the eyes of an (almost) accomplished athlete.
Sports past and present, French performances, sports walks, themed exhibitions, discovery of emblematic French sports venues... There's a thousand and one ways to talk about sport, and a thousand and one activities to try out during this cultural weekend.
So get your sneakers on and stretch out: we're off on a two-day marathon to discover the sporting activities you can try out during the Journées du Patrimoine in Paris and the Île-de-France region.
