"Renovation of a pavilion within the National Assembly ignites backlash from nationalistic circles," or simply, "National Assembly pavilion renovation sparks controversy among nationalists."
The Palais-Bourbon, home to the French National Assembly, is undergoing a significant renovation project aimed at improving the public reception building. Led by Yael Braun-Pivet, the President of the National Assembly, the project is a "revolution" for the historic building.
Details about the renovation have been sparse in the available sources, with most discussions focusing on the 2025 Journées du Patrimoine (Heritage Days) events, during which the Palais-Bourbon is open to visitors by registration. However, the project is massive, encompassing a new entrance pavilion, an auditorium, a museum tracing the history of the republics, a room for school groups, a cafeteria, and the relocation of the shop.
Yael Braun-Pivet, who has been in office since 2022, has emphasised the need to improve the welcome for citizens in the Lower House. She has stated that the current entrance is far from functional, and the renovation project will address this issue by entirely rebuilding and preserving the entrance at 33, Quai d'Orsay.
The project also includes a new pavilion, which was showcased during a display at the Assembly. The Lower House has been under the spotlight since June 9, 2024, with the institution's president, Yael Braun-Pivet, leading the transformation.
Visitors can expect a more welcoming and modern experience at the Palais-Bourbon once the renovation is complete. The Palais-Bourbon is scheduled to close by late June for the renovation work. For those seeking detailed and current information on this project, official communications from the French National Assembly or recent statements by Yael Braun-Pivet are recommended.
