Come and discover the world of materiality in Île-de-France, from extraction to construction.
The resources of the Île-de-France region – limestone, millstone, sandstone, clay, gypsum, sand, hemp, straw – constitute, from their extraction to their architectural implementation, a privileged gateway to a social history, urban and environmental of the Parisian periphery in all its diversity. This exhibition thus offers a non-exhaustive history of the link between geography and architecture, from the 19th century to the present day.
The guided tour lasts about an hour.
