A new music festival and a new program in the town of Le Kremlin-Bicêtre. Join us on Saturday June 21, 2025 from 4pm, for an eclectic afternoon and evening of music, sure to delight all music lovers.
Located just outside the 13th arrondissement in the Val-de-Marne, after the Porte d'Italie, Kremlin-Bicêtre is a commune between Villejuif and Gentilly, at the gateway to Paris. Today, the town is best known for its hospital and its eventful history.
There are many interesting facts about the commune's history. The hospital was founded in the 17th century: under the monarchy, it was a hospice, a lunatic asylum and a state prison. Under Napoleon I's Empire, the hospice cared for soldiers and veterans of the Russian campaigns. The name Kremlin-Bicêtre is thought to have originated at this time: in the 19th century, the commune consisted mainly of the hospital and the surrounding fields. During the Russian campaign, a cabaret called Au sergent du Kremlin or Le Nouveau Kremlin opened its doors in the district. The term Bicêtre comes from the feudal castle of Winchester, whose name was changed to Vincestre, then Bichestre... Until it became the name we know today.
This is a fascinating story for heritage aficionados... But it's not nearly as captivating as the musical entertainment planned for June 21 in the commune! Discover the evening's program at Parc Pinel and Parc de Bicêtre, open to all, young and old, residents and visitors alike.
Family entertainment is also planned throughout the town in the early afternoon. Kremlin-Bicêtre is gearing up for a day of festivities!
