To mark the 40th Journées du Patrimoine, the Maison d'Auguste Comte unveils its program for the weekend of September 16 and 17, 2023 in Paris.

Have you heard of the Journées du Patrimoine ? This not-to-be-missed cultural event invites you to explore our heritage through an attractive program of guided tours, often free of charge, original events and other surprises. Some places that are usually closed to the public even open their doors to you for the occasion!

We're taking advantage of the 40th Heritage Days to discover the Maison d'Auguste Comte, open for the occasion on Saturday 16th and Sunday 17th September 2023. Located on rue Monsieur le Prince, in the heart of the Latin Quarter, this museum-apartment hasn't moved a muscle sinceAuguste Comte's death 151 years ago.

You've probably come across him in philosophy or French class, but who really was Auguste Comte? The father of sociology, this major 19th-century philosopher also developed positivism,"a global project for the reorganization of society in its social, political, moral and even religious dimensions", as the museum named after him puts it.

A place of remembrance, this apartment invites visitors to take a journey back in time, alongside the philosopher, and of course to immerse themselves in his theories and understand their ins and outs. It's also an opportunity to learn more about the man and his field of expertise.
