EPS Esquirol is a former psychiatric asylum, listed as a historical monument, whose origins date back to the 17th century. It was rebuilt in the 19th century in a neoclassical style, under the direction of Jean-Étienne Esquirol, from whom it takes its name. TheHôpital National de Saint-Maurice was originally theAsile Impérial de Vincennes. Inaugurated in 1857, its purpose was to accommodate convalescent workers coming out of hospital care, at a time when Prefect Haussmann was undertaking the gigantic urbanization works that transformed Paris.

As a reminder, this cultural event is a not-to-be-missed fixture on the Île-de-France calendar: over the course of a weekend, visitors can enjoy a wide range of visits, events and exceptional openings throughout the region. The next edition is scheduled for the weekend of September 19 to 21, 2025.
