Gare de Musée d'Orsay walks

A long urban trail on the theme of sundials and sites related to astronomy scattered throughout Paris: the Paris meridian, observatories, gnomons, etc. Best done on a sunny day so you can read the time along the way! The sundials are often high up, sometimes hidden by trees that have grown... you may have to search hard to find them.

A journey into the medieval and even Gallo-Roman past of Paris, following in the footsteps of Sainte-Geneviève, whose namesake hill we climb, whose ancient sarcophagus can be seen in the church of Saint-Étienne-du-Mont, and whose statue can be seen in the Jardin du Luxembourg and on the Pont de la Tournelle. Among other sights, the itinerary follows a section of the old city wall built by Philippe Auguste and crosses the Arènes de Lutèce.

An urban route steeped in history, where 16th- and 17th-century buildings stand alongside modern architecture.

The itinerary winds its way through streets, alleys, passageways and gardens, offering visitors the chance to discover a rich and diverse heritage.
