Restoration of Opéra Comique’s Grand Foyer Announced in Paris

Three years ago, World Monuments Fund Europe approached Jérôme Deschamps, Director of the Opéra Comique, and listed the restoration of the Grand Foyer among its priority projects. WMF has raised two-thirds of the necessary funds, with the remainder supplied by the French government, owner of the site. The restoration, conducted under the direction of National Heritage Sites of France, was entrusted to the best artisans, selected for this prestigious project.
