Guided tour
17 The Passage du Nord
[Icons]
This guided visit focuses on the Passage du Nord, a landmark of the great boulevards in the historic centre. The shopping arcade was designed by architect Henri Rieck in 1882 to connect Boulevard Adolphe Max with Rue Neuve. A masterpiece of eclectic architecture, it was listed in 1995 and has been undergoing major restoration for more than twenty years, culminating in the reconstruction of the domes that crowned the façade until 1910.
The visit includes access to the passage walkways, offering an exceptional view over the gallery. It ends above the glass roof, where the craftsmanship behind the original structure can be appreciated up close.
In collaboration with ARAU.
