November 13 commemorations in Paris: two metro stations closed this Thursday

Ten years ago, Paris was hit by a series of terrorist attacks, killing 132 people and injuring several hundred more at the Stade de France, on café terraces in Paris, and at the Bataclan. Ten years later, several tribute ceremonies are being organized this Thursday, November 13, 2025, in the capital. Marked by sobriety and contemplation, these tributes will be held at all the sites affected by the attacks, in the presence of the mayor of Paris, Anne Hidalgo, officials, and victims' associations.

To commemorate the sad 10th anniversary of the November 13 attacks, a large official ceremony is also planned at the Jardin du 13 Novembre 2015. Located on Place Saint-Gervais in the 4th arrondissement, this memorial garden will be officially inaugurated on Thursday. The ceremony, which will not be open to the public, will be broadcast on a large screen on Place de la République from 6 p.m. to 8 p.m. The event will also be broadcast live on TF1 and France 2.
