Journées du Patrimoine 2025 at the Centre Culturel Irlandais de Paris: open house and concert

The Journées du Patrimoine 2025 take place on September 20 and 21! And this year, the Centre Culturel Irlandais awaits you with tours of the Chapelle Saint-Patrick, as well as concerts!

Located just a stone's throw from the Panthéon, the Centre culturel irlandais is at the heart of the Irish cultural life in Paris, housed in the historic Collège des Irlandais. Opened in Paris in 1578, the Collège soon became home to Irish priests and students who fled their country after the Anglican schism.

As part of the Journées du Patrimoine 2025, the Centre culturel irlandais is opening its doors to the curious on Saturday September 20 and Sunday September 21. A great opportunity to discover this unique place in Paris, with its U-shaped architecture and large, shady courtyard surrounded by chestnut trees.
