Here’s a contemporary guide to Paris that includes a list of places you may not have thought to visit.

The Centre Pompidou
In 1969, President Georges Pompidou decided to provide France with a venue like no other: a centre for art and culture capable of housing both the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art, with an international dimension, a large public library (the future Bpi), a centre for industrial creation and a centre for musical research and creation (Ircam), all together in one and the same building situated in the heart of the capital. For Claude and Georges Pompidou, the Centre Pompidou had to be a place where all disciplines could meet, where artists could converse with the public. It also had to support emerging scenes and introduce and provoke debate. Levels four and five house and amazing collection of modern and contemporary art, with temporary exhibitions on sixth floor. 🎟 Tickets to museum: €14 per person
