We can see what you’re thinking: “Plaine Commune? Where’s that?” Just a stone’s throw from Paris, just north of the capital!
The area comprises eight towns, including Saint-Denis, Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine, Aubervilliers and L’Île-Saint-Denis (that’s right, you don’t need to go to the Caribbean to have an island within your own country).
Getting there is very simple: it takes 10 minutes from Gare du Nord to Saint-Denis, 15 minutes from Châtelet, 10 minutes from Saint-Lazare or 30 minutes from the major Parisian stations. The area is served by metro lines 7, 12, 13 and 14, the RER B, RER C and RER D,line H, tram lines T1, T5, T8 and T11, as well as an extensive bus network. Just a few stops are all it takes to change scenery.
Now that you know it’s easy to get here, all that’s left is to come and discover a destination unlike any other.
The legacy of the Olympic Games, a wall transformed into a work of art, a basilica that has stood the test of time… and, above all, passionate locals who open the doors to places and experiences you’d never have imagined discovering.
