The town hall of Saint-Gilles, a place of life, art and memory

Inaugurated in 1904, this Town Hall is one of the most beautiful in our capital. Designed in the optimistic atmosphere of the Belle Epoque, it called on the best artists to illustrate the conviction that the progress of humanity will be made through Art, Science, Education, Democracy and Work.... What a programme! And what an artistic success! Our interior and exterior tour will give you the keys and take you from surprise to surprise: decorations, sculptures, frescoes, poignant or comical details will tell us about the century-old hope for a better world and will encourage us to reflect on the place of these values of progress for the present and for the future.
