The renowned Easter egg hunt in Provins is making a comeback on April 5th and 6th, 2026, in Seine-et-Marne. Children and their families will enjoy a delightful stroll through the medieval town as they search for hidden treasures. It's the perfect opportunity for a memorable day trip to Provins, just under an hour from Paris!

The Medieval City of Provins and its Tourist Office are offering a free opportunity for families to join a historic Easter egg hunt. Mark your calendars for April 5 and 6, 2026, for a delightful adventure perfect for little sweet teeth and young explorers alike.

As every year, the Provins Tourist Office hosts a cleverly crafted treasure hunt designed to delight both children and adults. To join this festive day, meet in front of the Tourist Office, located at 4 rue Villecran in Provins, to pick up your map and riddles for the adventure that will guide you through the medieval city, listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Children (aged 12 and under) accompanied by their parents will have the chance to follow in the footsteps of knights and princesses (costumed characters reminiscent of medieval times) to collect small chocolate eggs. The great news is that this egg hunt is completely free and no reservation is needed!

For the creative minds out there, a Easter egg decorating workshop runs from April 4 to May 2, 2026, at the Museum of Days Gone By. This paid, reservation-only activity invites children to dive into the Easter festivities by painting and decorating their own eggs. Best of all, parents can take the opportunity to explore the museum while their kids are engaged in the workshop—everyone wins!

During this extended weekend, head to the medieval town of Provins for a stroll that's as delightful as it is delicious.
