The Journées du Patrimoine are back! This year's event takes place on September 20 and 21, and many sites are opening their doors to show Parisians and visitors alike the secrets of the capital. The Hôpital Georges-Pompidou is one of them, and is organizing guided tours to discover its architecture and cultural program.
But what exactly are the Journées du Patrimoine? Launched in 1984, the Heritage Days are a major cultural event in France and in over 50 European countries. They enable the general public to discover cultural heritage through guided tours and activities in historic monuments, administrative buildings, private homes, industrial sites and many other places usually closed to the public. Indeed, it is not possible to offer guided tours of the Georges-Pompidou Hospital at any other time of the year other than the Journées du Patrimoine 2025.

Inaugurated in 2001, the George Pompidou Hospital in Paris is part of the Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris (AP-HP). It is renowned for its cutting-edge care, particularly in the fields of cardiology, cardiac surgery and transplantation. The hospital is distinguished by its modern, functional architecture, designed by architect Aymeric Zublena, with a glass and metal structure and vast, bright, open spaces designed to foster a soothing atmosphere for patients and staff alike.
To celebrate its 25th anniversary, the Georges-Pompidou European Hospital invites you to explore the Rue Hospitalière, an architectural jewel designed by A. Zublena.
There will also be a preview of an exhibition on the history of the hospital and the scientific innovations carried out by its teams.
The exhibition will be displayed on the windows of the hospital entrance opposite the reception desk, and will remain on view until December 31, 2025.
