Description

The Palais de Tokyo occupies a monumental building which was built in 1937 for the Paris International Exhibition dedicated to Art and Technology in Modern Life. It is situated in the 16th arrondissement, a stone's throw from Trocadéro and the Eiffel Tower. The west wing of the palace houses one of the largest centres for creation and contemporary art in Europe. Entirely renovated in April 2012 by the architects Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vasall, the site offers visitors exhibitions, meetings, screenings, concerts and performances in a 22,000 m² space spread across 4 floors. The Little Palais offers special activities and workshops for children. Numerous amenities: two restaurants, including the Tokyo Eat, two gardens and a bookshop. The east wing of the Palais de Tokyo houses the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris.
