What you will discover

The main office of Université Paris Cité is located at Odéon. Its rich story dates back to the 18th century. Through these historical and heritage tours, the libraries of Université Paris Cité invite their students to discover the origins of the university as well as its exceptional heritage. A tour guide will introduce them to the most emblematic places of the main office of Université Paris Cité (grand amphithéâtre, salle du Conseil, salle du Sénat, grand escalier) before escorting them at greater length to the Musée d’histoire de la médecine and to the BIU Santé Médecine. This new tour will be an opportunity to discover both the university’s heritage collections and the librairies to which the university’s students have access.
 
These tours will be offered throughout the 2024-2025 academic year, in French or English.
