Frequency of visiting monuments in France 2018

Have the French visited a monument this year? Visiting a monument often appears to be a way to discover a remarkable work of architecture. However, monuments also perpetuate the memory of an event, of a person, in other words of History.

The survey not only highlights that one out of five French people was a punctual visitor to these heritage sites. It also shows that almost a quarter of respondents had visited at least three monuments in the past twelve months.

In comparison, although 42 percent of respondents did not visit monuments in 2018, this percentage was higher than the 61 percent of non-museum or temporary exhibition visitors.
