The Val-de-Marne department is perhaps younger than you are: it was officially created on January 1, 1968. It's home to a wide variety of landscapes, from towns close to Paris like Créteil, Ivry-sur-Seine or Vitry-sur-Seine, to much more rural corners, with gardens, green corridors and the Marne River.
The Val-de-Marne offers a wealth of beautiful walking routes, but not only that! The 94 has a wealth of museums, cultural institutions, castles and monuments to add a little more art and culture to our daily outings. Contemporary art, history, science, street art, photography: the department'scultural calendar is always full of interesting and varied events.
So art lovers can rejoice: the Val-de-Marne has plenty to keep them busy all year round. Why not take a look at the current program? Exhibitions, art fairs, installations, family events: you'll never be bored in the 94!
