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 42nd Journées du Patrimoine to discover the Maison d'Auguste Comte, open for the occasion on Saturday September 20 and Sunday September 21, 2025. Located on rue Monsieur le Prince, in the heart of the Latin Quarter, this museum-apartment has not moved a muscle sinceAuguste Comte's death 151 years ago.
You've probably come across him in philosophy or French class, but who is Auguste Comte really? 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.
As a place of remembrance, the apartment invites visitors to take a journey back in time, alongside the philosopher, and 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.
