By team, come and take up the various challenges that await you on the esplanade of the Fabrique de la ville and in the Maison-Scaffolding:

  • The rose kit: reconstruction in the form of a puzzle of the north rose of the Basilica of Saint-Denis.
  • The 13-knot rope and rosette pattern: put yourself in the shoes of an architect of the Middle Ages and make rosettes using 13-knot ropes.
  • Sounds of the past: what were the jobs of the builders of the Middle Ages? Try to identify them through sound recordings.
  • Building materials: like an archaeologist, learn to study the facade of the scaffold house to recognize the different materials used for its construction.
  • Photo Express: explore the scaffolding house to find the places illustrated on photographs.
  • The lookout tower: climb to the top of the scaffolding and try to recognize the different visible monuments (some are very famous!).
    A final test awaits you at the end of the day… Ready to face our challenges?

About the location

La Fabrique de la ville
4 rue du Cygne 93200 Saint-Denis
  • Seine-Saint-Denis
  • Île-de-France
The Fabrique de la ville was inaugurated in the heart of Saint-Denis in 2011, a stone’s throw from the basilica and adjacent to the tourist office. Raising her mushroom-like hat and accompanied by a site of archaeological excavations, she created surprise. A real urban island, in resonance with that of the basilica. Places full of history that let glimpse to the Dionysian population the origins of this land that they tread every day. A unique experience to experience, immersing yourself in the history of this famous city but which still hides many secrets. Since 2009, the public has been able to discover the archaeological site at the foot of the Fabrique and the numerous remains discovered, such as lavandière vats or the remains of a craft around animal skins. After its extension in 2015, the excavation expanded and was completed in the summer of 2017\. If you have ever been to Swan Island, forget the landscape you knew. Feel free to rediscover it, you might be surprised…
