Take this opportunity to immerse yourself in this artistic and technical universe, and rediscover the treasures of the Cité de la Céramique during the Nuit des Musées 2024.
The Musée de Sèvres - Cité de la Cé ramique was created by the merger of the Musée national de Céramique and the Manufacture nationale de Sèvres in 2010. The Manufacture de Sèvres, founded in 1740 under the reign of Louis XV, was moved to its present site in 1756. Since then, it has become a symbol of French porcelain and ceramics expertise, attracting renowned artists and craftsmen. The museum, meanwhile, was created in 1824 to preserve and present works produced by the Manufacture and those from public and private collections. So what's in store for this new edition of Nuit des Musées 2024? We reveal the program for this nocturne!
Le programme est mis à jour en fonction des annonces officielles.
