EVENTS

The 15th arrondissement of Paris, often overshadowed by its more famous neighbors, is teeming with hidden treasures waiting to be discovered. If you are looking for new adventures and unique places, this district has much to offer, from lesser-known museums to hidden parks and artisanal shops.

An Artistic and Cultural Journey

Between the Montparnasse Tower and the Necker Hospital lies the Bourdelle Museum, a gem dedicated to the sculptor Antoine Bourdelle. A collaborator of Auguste Rodin and teacher of Alberto Giacometti, Bourdelle left an impressive artistic legacy that can be admired in his former studio and the magnificent sculpture garden. Just a few steps from the Montparnasse station, the Postal Museum, completely renovated in 2019, offers a fascinating immersion into the history and professions of the postal service, with more than a million philatelic pieces and objects dating from the Middle Ages to the present day.

Green Spaces and Havens of Peace

At the edge of André Citroën Park, the Caroline Aigle Garden hosts Les Étincelles, an eco-friendly and temporary structure of the Palais de la Découverte. This place offers interactive scientific activities, including a planetarium, perfect for a family outing. The artists' community La Ruche, located in Passage Dantzig, is another hidden treasure of the 15th. This historic site, which once hosted artists like Amedeo Modigliani and Marc Chagall, continues to thrive with contemporary creation in its sixty studios.

The 15th arrondissement of Paris has nothing to envy from other neighborhoods in the capital. With its unique cultural spots and peaceful green spaces, it offers residents and visitors memorable experiences. Be sure to take a break at Hôtel La Conversation, a strategic point to discover these hidden secrets and fully enjoy this enchanting district.
