Young and old alike can enjoy workshops, tours, entertainment and much more.

Want to discover the capital's hidden nuggets? On the border between the 6th and 7th arrondissements of the capital, on Rue du Bac, lies a place hidden from the gaze of passers-by: the headquarters of the Séminaire des Missions Étrangères.
