The Ministry of Culture sponsors an annual open day on the third weekend of September when over 15,000 monuments and buildings throughout France which are normally closed to the public are opened.

This is a rare opportunity to get a glimpse of some of the hidden gems of civil, religious and military engineering, fine arts and crafts – for full details see www.journeesdupatrimoine.culture.fr/
