[HIGHLIGHTS] Montmartre a UNESCO world heritage site? Residents mobilize for the candidacy

Montmartre hill could soon join the banks of the Seine on the UNESCO world heritage list. Residents mobilize for the candidacy.

“MontMartre World Heritage’ association has given itself until September to submit an application to the Ministry of Culture. Created in November 2022 by three Montmartres, it takes up the torch of a wish expressed in 2019 by local elected officials and immediately adopted by the Paris Council. The mayor welcomes this “handing over” to civil society, which “anchors the candidacy in the territory”
