The Journées du Patrimoine were first held in France in 1984, under the impetus of the Ministry of Culture, before being extended throughout Europe in 1991. Every third weekend in September, they offer a unique opportunity to visit monuments, museums, institutions and places usually closed to the public, free of charge.
In Paris, you can visit the FrenchNational Assembly, go backstage at the Opéra Garnier or venture into historic townhouses. The event combines architectural discoveries, exhibitions, workshops and shows, while celebrating tangible and intangible heritage. These days are also an opportunity for Parisians and visitors alike to reappropriate the city's cultural wealth, by taking part in guided tours, lectures or unusual itineraries.
In Aubervilliers, POUSH, an artistic venue, is taking part in this celebration by opening its doors to the curious. Housed in theformer L.T. Piverperfumery, founded in Piver perfumery, founded in 1774 and established on this site in 1869, this red-brick building was once a mecca for the French perfume industry, producing thousands of bottles every day. Closed in the 1970s, the factory was transformed in 2022 into a vast creative space that today hosts over 260 artists. During the Journées du Patrimoine, visitors can explore its industrial and olfactory history, while discovering the workshops where contemporary works are created.
