The Journées du Patrimoine (Heritage Days) invite us to explore our heritage and culture from every angle over an exceptional weekend. Every year, this not-to-be-missed cultural event offers a packed program of visits, events and workshops, often free of charge, at some of our finest heritage sites.
In Paris and the Ile-de-France region, a wide range of venues will be taking part, from must-see monuments to private and even secret locations. The event returns for a dynamic 42nd edition on the weekend of September 20 and 21, 2025.
On this occasion, the curious will be able to discover the Hôtel de Talleyrand, a sublime Neo-classical mansion dating from the 18th century. Also known as theHôtel Saint-Florentin, this emblematic building became the property of the United States government in 1950. It was here that Paul Child, diplomat and husband of the famous Julia Child, a student at Le Cordon Bleu Paris in 1951, worked. The first woman to introduce the techniques taught at the institute to American television, she introduced America to French gastronomy.
