La Caverne du Pont Neuf

THE OPENING OF LA CAVERNE DU PONT NEUF HAS BEEN POSTPONED: We are currently carrying out repairs and will announce a new opening date as soon as possible. Learn more about the repair process.

La Caverne du Pont Neuf, a monumental temporary work of art by JR, will transform the cityscape of Paris this summer. Plan your crossing using the official project website.

The artwork pays tribute to Christo and Jeanne-Claude's The Pont Neuf Wrapped, which celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2025. This is a time-limited opportunity for Parisians and visitors to experience an ephemeral reimagining of the city's oldest bridge.

The project is facilitated by L’Amicale des Ponts de Paris endowment fund. The installation will not use any government sources. It is funded by the sale of JR's works along with private support, including Snap Inc., Bloomberg Philanthropies, Paris Aéroport, and Salesforce.

Beyond the Pont Neuf, the installation is visible across the city — on foot or by bike, from the Seine's quays and its bridges, or from the water by boat.

Accessible free of charge, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
