Salon du Patrimoine Culturel 2026 in Paris: where to stay

The Salon du Patrimoine Culturel brings together at the Carrousel du Louvre professionals, institutions and heritage enthusiasts working on the conservation, restoration and promotion of cultural heritage, both movable and built. Over four days, restorers, art craftspeople, architects, museums, foundations and specialists showcase techniques, materials and projects linked to heritage preservation. Organised by Ateliers d'Art de France (AAF), the fair has become a key meeting point in France for those working in art crafts, restoration and heritage care. The programme combines exhibitor stands with talks, live demonstrations and dedicated networking spaces for the trade. Held at the Carrousel du Louvre in central Paris, just steps from the Louvre Museum and rue de Rivoli, the venue is within walking distance of hotels in the 1st and 2nd arrondissements and well connected to the metro and RER network for visitors arriving from other parts of the city.
