The Journées du Patrimoine are back for their 42nd edition on September 20 and 21, 2025. As always, this year's event offers a wealth of discoveries and beautiful walks, allowing us to admire and appreciate the heritage treasures hidden all around us. Museums, monuments, places of worship, stores and workshops, parks and train stations... A whole host of places are taking part in this event. Even schools!
In Paris and Île-de-France, prestigious schools are opening their doors to the curious during the Journées du Patrimoine weekend. A case in point is the Collège Condorcet, located in the 8th arrondissement of Paris.
This school, formerly known asthe "Petit Lycée Condorcet", is linked to the Lycée Condorcet. The "Petit Lycée" was a school for pupils from CP to CM2, who were destined to enter the lycée. In the 19th and 20th centuries, lycée studies were less common, and therefore considered prestigious. At the Petit Lycée, young students were trained to enter the Lycée Condorcet. Since then, the 8th arrondissement school has become a collège.
Discover this school with its ancient history, and take advantage of the special events planned for the Journées du Patrimoine in Paris.
Des élèves du Collège présenteront le résultat de leur travail sur les premières années du Petit Lycée Condorcet (1882-1914) via une exposition et à la suite proposeront une déambulation dans quelques lieux du Collège.
Enjoy your visit!
