The Journées du Patrimoine in Paris is the event not to be missed this autumn! Once again, we're opening the doors of the greatest cultural institutions , monuments, luxury addresses and unusual spots, all of which bear witness to the capital's influence around the world. A godsend for lovers of the City of Light, who are sure to find something to their liking in the multitude of tours and events on offer.

This year, 2024, theCartier Jewellery Institute joins the program for the 41st edition of the cultural event. The luxury brand, which dates back to 1847, has always been committed to transmitting and perpetuating its know-how of excellence.

To meet its educational needs, in 2002 the Maison opened theInstitut Joaillerie Cartier, which later moved to theHôtel Pinsot, an 18th-century mansion in Paris's ninth arrondissement. A marvellous workshop, incubator of talent and vehicle for the wealth of jewelry knowledge inculcated through a historic artisan apprenticeship, from preceptor to apprentice.

This exceptional opening, on the occasion of the Journées du Patrimoine 2024, invites you to experience an epic journey among treasures and precious stones in a majestic Cartier showcase, right in the heart of Paris' historic jewelry district, on September 21 and 22. Please note that access to the Institut is by reservation only.
