“An art exhibition in an 18th-century pavilion? That’s unexpected!” Avenue Baudoin in Paris holds a hidden gem – the Pavillon Carré de Baudouin. This charming pavilion, built in the 18th century, has had quite the journey through time. It started as a countryside retreat, then became a home for the Goncourt family, and even served as an orphanage. Can you imagine the stories these walls could tell? In 2004, the City of Paris acquired the pavilion. Today, it’s a vibrant cultural space managed by the 20th arrondissement’s City Hall. The Pavillon Carré de Baudouin is dedicated to contemporary creation, hosting free art events that make culture accessible to everyone.
