Place Marcel Sembat walks

We start by exploring Billancourt's industrial past on the former Renault factory sites, with a detour to the Ile Seguin. We then continue on to the Ile Saint-Germain, with its residential area and large green park. We end with a tribute to French cinema. This is an urban itinerary, but numerous parks and gardens, as well as many passageways, alleys and even footpaths, allow you to avoid the inconveniences of traffic.

The Parc de Boulogne, not to be confused with the Bois du même nom, offers visitors the chance to discover its English-style park and Japanese garden. After visiting the park, you can stroll through the streets of the Menus district, the historic heart of Boulogne.

The 1930s Trail was designed by the City of Boulogne-Billancourt. Discover a rich architectural heritage, thanks to the imagination of architects such as Le Corbusier, Courrèges, Mallet-Stevens and others. An original urban route that pays tribute to the creative movement of the interwar period.

A short urban walk to visit the older of the two active cemeteries in Boulogne-Billancourt. There is a wealth of statuary to admire, and several chapels vie with one another in their ornate decoration. The graves of several notable figures can also be found here.

An urban walk to visit the newer of the two active cemeteries in Boulogne-Billancourt. Several notable figures are buried here, including a number of former mayors of the town. The cemetery also features several memorials honouring those who died and were deported during the two world wars.

The term ‘Parisian’ in the title should be taken in the broadest sense. This guide brings together public cemeteries located in two neighbouring but distinct areas:- 14 cemeteries within the city limits of Paris, one of which actually falls under the jurisdiction of the neighbouring municipality of Charenton-le-Pont.- Several cemeteries in municipalities within the Petite Couronne, six of which are administered by the City of Paris and are therefore described as ‘Parisian’.Varying in size, these cemeteries are the final resting places of a varying number of notable figures. They also feature a wide variety of monument styles, depending on the simplicity or fame of the deceased and the financial means of their families.

The municipality of Boulogne-Billancourt has commissioned an association to cover a wall approximately 200 metres long with murals. The main aim of this short urban walk is to admire these works of art, which may change over time. Before reaching them, you can see a few trompe-l’œil paintings indicating the direction of the city’s museums.

Although densely urbanised, the Hauts-de-Seine department offers wonderful opportunities for walkers, with a rich heritage and often a little elevation. This series of hikes, almost all of which are accessible by public transport, takes you on a journey of discovery through this department, avoiding major roads as much as possible and favouring footpaths and alleys, public parks and wooded areas.
