The Heritage Days offer a fantastic opportunity to explore the rich history and cultural treasures of our country. An eagerly anticipated event for history buffs, art lovers, and culture enthusiasts alike, these days make their return every September. Mark your calendars for the weekend of September 20 and 21, 2025, in Paris and Île-de-France. During this special occasion, secret gems are unveiled exclusively to the public—historic sites that are usually off-limits become accessible, and museums host unique exhibitions. It’s a rare chance to discover lesser-known architectures, traditions, and cultural heritage, all while marveling with family and friends. With guided tours, concerts, and quirky visits, there’s never a dull moment—an entire weekend of exploration and discovery awaits.
