The suburbs near Paris, with their towns in the southern suburbs, such as Sèvres, Boulogne-Billancourt, Saint-Cloud and Meudon, offer an ideal setting for family outings combining nature, culture and heritage... With ideas for toddlers, children and teenagers alike.
In Sèvres, the Musée National de Céramique, with its fascinating collection of porcelain, earthenware and other objects, needs no introduction. There are also creative workshops for children, introducing them to the art of pottery in a fun and educational setting.
Boulogne-Billancourt, known for its Parc de Saint-Cloud and its inimitable view of Paris (and its Eiffel Tower), is also particularly well-suited to family outings, with the magnificent Albert Kahn gardens adjoining the eponymous museum.
Saint-Cloud, with its Domaine National of vast formal gardens, also hosts family-friendly cultural events and festivals,
Meudon is famous for its eponymous forest, a natural area ideal for exploration and outdoor adventure. In addition to the hikes and bike rides on offer, the Hangar Y is now a family-friendly cultural venue housed in a former airship hangar in the heart of the forest.
Located on the outskirts of Paris and served by the metro, these towns have everything it takes to welcome a family audience: are we planning a little trip to the area soon?
