The ancient pilgrimage route, the Way of St James, passed through Massy on its long journey to Santiago de Compostela in northwestern Spain. In France many people begin their 1448-kilometre trek from the Tour Saint-Jacques in Paris. Traditionally pilgrims would have stopped in Massy to worship at this church, which took heavy damage during the Alli...
Massy has the only opera house in the Île-de-France Region outside of Paris. And despite the name, the venue puts books all kinds of performers so it’s worth checking the calendar before you come to Massy: There’s dance, theatre, literary recitals, music as well as operas like Tosca, Turandot, Faust and Così fan tutte in the last few years. It’s a ...
Massy isn’t brimming with blockbuster landmarks, but if you find yourself in the suburb you could pass a fun morning poking around. Before it was built up after the war Massy was a rural getaway for some well-to-do Parisians like the historian Fustel de Coulanges. Another was the vaunted surgeon Jacques-René Tenon who helped advance hygiene in the ...
If the Opéra de Massy is for high culture, the Centre Culturel Paul B is a stylish new performing arts centre where you can discover fresh musical talent. New artists share billing with touring bands, all in a laid-back, hip environment. Whether you’re into jazz, indie, hip hop, world music or any genre of rock it’s worth finding out what’s in stor...
The local suburb of Sceaux was chosen by Louis XIV’s minster of finance Jean-Baptiste Colbert for his residence. His château was later demolished to be replaced by a Louis XIII-revival mansion during the Second Empire. But the park around it follows the same plan as when it was landscaped by the prodigious André Le Nôtre who made his name at Versai...
That château and its outbuildings are a single museum, with art from the Paris School and majestic architecture. The Pavillon d’Aurore is one of the few fragments of Colbert’s original 17th-century château and was decorated by the brilliant Charles le Brun, who also worked on Versailles. The orangery preserves the sculptures that decorated the grou...
Known at the time as the Vallée-aux-Loups, this property was a retreat from the Parisian political scene for the writer-turned-politician François-René de Chateaubriand. He moved here with his wife Céleste in 1807 and was very attached to the house and its gorgeous park. Inside the home where he also wrote his memoirs, there’s an exhibition about h...
Set your alarm and get over to the suburb of Rungis, where the largest wholesale market on the planet does business. The numbers involved at this 234-hectare complex are almost mind-bending: 13,000 people work here each day, when some 26,000 vehicles enter the site. You can guess that this isn’t somewhere to do your grocery shopping, but rather a t...
No more than 20 minutes on the RER is an ossuary where the bones of some six million Parisians are stacked in decorative arrangements. And while these tunnels and galleries lined with bones and skulls may seem frivolous in a creepy sort of way, they came about as an answer to a crisis gripping the city in the 1700s. Because of cave-ins and plain la...
Queuing for the Eiffel Tower and then jostling to enjoy the view from the platforms is one of the downsides to visiting Paris. So if time is at a premium, or you want a view of the Paris skyline that actually includes the Eiffel Tower, the Tour Montparnasse is the answer. The view from the top of this 210-metre skyscraper may well be the best in th...
