Free tours, workshops, events, walks, discoveries, secrets revealed, shows... The events organized during the Journées du Patrimoine take many forms! It's worth noting that this European and cultural event is very special: for one weekend, the most beautiful heritage sites in our region open their doors to us for free or at a reduced cost.
