The story that haunts this land
Your urban walking game in Vitry-sur-Seine begins at Place Nelson Mandela. This central location, a hub for urban recreational activities, introduces you to the spirit of freedom and expression that permeates the city.

A symbol of the city's creative transformation, the MAC VAL is an official tourist reference for discovering local artistic energy.
