Paris Virtual Soirée: Echoes of the Colonial Past (2/4)
Thursday, September 10th at 5:00pm Eastern Time

Today, let me take you on a guided tour of the Palais de la Porte Dorée. Together, we will unravel the remarkable story of this unique building, originally constructed for the 1931 Exposition Coloniale. Hear about its multiple transformations from “permanent” museum of the colonies to national museum of immigration, and explore its unique art and architecture, taking a look at its extravagant and now controversial frescoes and sculpted façade, the longest in Europe.
