The Maison de la RATP opens its doors to us for the 41st edition of the Journées du Patrimoine this weekend of September 21 and 22, 2024 in Paris. It's time to discover the Urban Station, the headquarters of the Parisian public transport network.

Every year, the Journées du Patrimoine (Heritage Days ) take place in September, and treat us to a vast program of visits and events, often free of charge, at the heart of well-known and little-known landmarks. In Paris and Île-de-France, monuments, churches, museums, libraries and other cultural venues take part in the event, unveiling their respective programs. It's even an opportunity to go and conquer places that are usually closed to the public, and take advantage of never-before-seen tours.

In the 12th arrondissement of Paris, this is the case of the Maison de la RATP, headquarters of the famous Parisian public transport network, which is hosting the 41st edition of the Journées du Patrimoine in the capital. It's an opportunity for enthusiasts and the curious alike to go behind the scenes of the Paris metro, and much more, with this exceptional opening awaiting us in the heart of the City of Light. We reveal the program of events and visits planned for the weekend of September 21 and 22, 2024 in Paris atRATP's Urban Station.
