The Centre Pompidou: a cultural icon

The Centre Pompidou is a temple of modern and contemporary art, and a must-see for all culture lovers. Opened in 1977, this astonishing space is part museum, part public library and part creative centre, where artists imagine and present the art of tomorrow. With its bold architecture and famous coloured pipes on the outside, giving it an irresistible appeal, it attracts and surprises over 3 million visitors every year. Its museum houses one of the world’s largest collections of modern art, while its dynamic stage hosts shows, exhibitions and events throughout the year.
