The Journées du Patrimoine are an opportunity for Parisians to rediscover their region and the capital's best-known sites. With its boutiques, bars, restaurants and cinema, Bercy Village has become a popular shopping destination for Parisians. But did you know that in the 19th century, it was the world's leading wine merchant? The cellars that still stand here today bear witness to the huge wine warehouses of that era. For the Journées du Patrimoine 2025, Bercy Village invites you to immerse yourself in the district's winegrowing history with free guided tours.
On September 20 and 21, 2025, take a stroll through the Bercy district, between past and present. This small commune on the banks of the Seine gradually became a placefor pleasure boating, with beautiful bourgeois residences, before becoming a commercial center known for the transport of wine. The historical vestiges that bear witness to this past are intermingled with modern constructions that have allowed this district of the 12th arrondissement to come back to life and become a "village" in its own right.
