The Journées du Patrimoine (Heritage Days) are being held this weekend, on 21 and 22 September. It’s an opportunity for visitors to discover places that are usually closed to the public. From must-see sites to a resolutely cinematic Château and some unusual addresses, focus on 7 French destinations for a highly cultural weekend.
Kering headquarters
Nestling in the heart of Paris’s 7th arrondissement, Kering’s head office opens its doors to the public as it does every year. This is an opportunity to discover a number of exhibitions, including ‘The subtleties of a dialogue’ led by Balenciaga. A series of six elements – collar, sleeve, ornament, black, waist and silhouette – brings together the creations of Cristóbal Balenciaga and those of Demna. It also features the Pinault Collection. The ‘In Praise of Space’ presentation brings together works by Nairy Baghramian, Pier Paolo Calzolari, Trisha Donnelly, Anne Imhof, Mario Merz and Danh Vo.
The Boucheron salon
At 26 Place Vendôme, Boucheron welcomes visitors to its private mansion. Led by the Boucheron team, visitors can take a closer look at the boutique, library and flat. Guests can admire jewellery from the brand’s private lines and meet members of the workshop.
