Heritage Days 2024: visit to the Arc du Carrousel du Louvre in Paris

Certain places and monuments in Paris are considered must-sees: it's impossible to visit the capital without seeing the Eiffel Tower, the Arc de Triomphe, the department stores, the Sacré-Coeur... And, of course, the Louvre. But the list doesn't end there, because around the famous art venue, there are many more must-sees.

The Louvre Museum and its collections are a must-see, as is the pyramid that decorates the museum's courtyard, or thearch of the Carrousel du Louvre, which marks the boundary between the museum and the Tuileries Gardens! And it's this Carrousel that we invite you to discover, on September 21 and 22, 2024, during the Journées du Patrimoine. It's time to rediscover this capital landmark!

During this cultural weekend, the Arc du Carrousel is offering a free themed tour of places that tell the story of the capital. Find out more about what's in store.
