Once again, a major social movement is sweeping France's cities. This Thursday, October 2, 2025, several unions are calling on citizens tostrike and demonstrate in the streets of the country's major cities, to protest against the current government's policies and announced economic measures.
To oppose the government's wishes, several sectors decided to make their voices heard and demand better living and working conditions, by taking to the streets. On this October 2, 2025, there are many strikers in the transport sector , in schools and public services, in the hospital and health sector...
In Paris, cultural and artistic venues are not spared by this strike: some museums and monuments have also announced partial or complete closures for this day of protest.
This is particularly true of the Musée de Cluny, located in the Latin Quarter of Paris. This museum dedicated to the Middle Ages announces on its website: " Today, partial opening from 1pm to 9:15pm due to a national labor movement." The museum therefore closes its doors in the morning, and only opens to the public from 1pm.
Depending on current events, opening times may change to accommodate the vagaries of the strike. Before visiting the museum, we advise you to consult the conditions of visit on the Musée de Cluny's official website or social networks.
