Pariseko Eskual Etxea

Pariseko Eskual Etxea – the “Maison basque de Paris” was born over fifty years ago, during a time when young Basques moved in great numbers to the French capital.

 All these youth needed a place to get together and to reconnect with their roots and their origins. They also wanted to integrate into Parisian society and find their place.

One of their activities is the pelote competition, every summer in Saint-Brice-sous-Forêt, just north of Paris.

Basque Berets are prominently displayed on the posters!
