PARIS – THE METROPOLIS AND ITS PROJECTS
> Saturdays and Sundays at 3pm
> Saturdays and Sundays at 11 am
The exhibition Cycling, Paris Metropolis 1818-2030 traces the evolution of cycling practices and the resulting social and urban impacts. Through a rich selection of historic bicycle models, original maps, posters, films and photographs, the exhibition covers more than two centuries of history to explore cycling practices of yesterday and today, and propose new perspectives. Successive recent crises have given new meaning to the bicycle, which embodies one of the solutions to environmental, economic and health challenges. The long history of cycling in Paris continues as we build a more ecological, practical and user-friendly city.

PARIS – THE METROPOLIS AND ITS PROJECTS
> Saturdays and Sundays at 3pm
Following a chronological trail, the exhibition retraces the origins of the Paris region and recounts the intertwined histories of the metropolis's communes, enabling everyone to understand the territory of today. The exhibition offers a number of thematic points of reference to explain how the metropolis was structured by agricultural, ornamental and road-related logics, then transformed, adapted and integrated into a process of urbanization driven by demographic, technological, economic and political developments.
