It's one of the capital's biggest stations, a hub of mobility that welcomes thousands of travelers every day: you're undoubtedly familiar with the Gare de Paris - Montparnasse, located on the border between the 6ᵉ, 14ᵉ and 15ᵉ arrondissements. Most of us have already walked the aisles and platforms of this station, but do you know what lies behind the doors reserved for SNCF staff?
On the occasion of the 42nd Journées du Patrimoine, the Montparnasse station will be revealing its behind-the-scenes secrets on September 20, 2025, with tours available by prior arrangement.
Is it possible to go behind the scenes at a railway station? Yes, during the Journées du Patrimoine, anything is possible! This European cultural event takes place every September. On this occasion, thousands of places of art, history and interest open their doors to the general public, allowing everyone to discover and appreciate the heritage and historical wealth of our region. Castles, museums, churches, artisan workshops, fashion houses, restaurants, cemeteries, monuments and much more await us on September 20 and 21, 2025.
Aucun événement annoncé à ce jour, le programme est mis à jour en fonction des annonces officielles.
