What to do during the All Saints’ holiday?

The“Christian Dior, visionary couturier” exhibition is open until Sunday 2 November 2025 at the Christian Dior Museum in Granville.

Dior, Enchanting Gardens
Essential to Christian Dior’s personal life, gardens were a major source of influence for the couturier in terms of both fashion and perfume. One hundred and twenty years after Christian Dior was born in Granville, the exhibition traces the memory of the enchanting garden of his childhood in his creations and those of his successors.

From Haute Couture to the accessories imagined in 1947, not forgetting Miss Dior, the original perfume, right up to the most recent creations, the theme of gardens is present in all the collections of the House of Dior in a fruitful dialogue at the heart of the villa Les Rhumbs, the couturier’s childhood home. The Dior, Jardins Enchanteurs exhibition is yet another opportunity to celebrate a designer who said he was as much a perfumer as a couturier.

Until 9 November 2025, the Richard Anacréon Museum of Modern Art is presenting the exhibition“Les écrivains bohèmes de Montmartre” (Bohemian writers in Montmartre).

From the turn of the 20th century to the First World War, Montmartre exerted a formidable power of attraction over writers, poets and artists wishing to settle in Paris.

The special exhibition Les écrivains bohèmes de Montmartre (Bohemian Writers of Montmartre) invites visitors to (re)discover this period of intense freedom and creativity through works from the collections of the Richard Anacréon Museum of Modern Art.

Built in the second half of the 12th century,La Lucerne Abbey was restored in the 15th and 17th centuries.

The Romanesque buildings, with their Cistercian sobriety and rigour, stand in a shady, picturesque setting.

The ensemble is dominated by an Anglo-Norman tower, a precursor of Gothic architecture.
