THE FOUNDATION'S COLLECTIONS
The Jérôme Seydoux-Pathé Foundation brings together all of Pathé's archives since its creation.
Recognised as being of public interest in 2006, the foundation provides for the conservation and transmission of Pathé's heritage. This means making a century-long heritage, steeped in history, accessible to one and all: silent films, equipment, photographs, posters, historical files, programmes, scripts, etc.
The Jérôme Seydoux-Pathé Foundation brings together all of Pathé's archives since its creation.
Behind these rich collections, there are thousands of stories to be told. To highlight them, the Jérôme Seydoux-Pathé Foundation develops numerous activities around its heritage.
The Jérôme Seydoux-Pathé Foundation pays tribute to a century of cinema through exhibitions, children's workshops and daily movie screenings, offering silent films accompanied by pianists trained by the improvisation classes of Jean-François Zygel (Conservatoire National Supérieur de Musique et de Danse de Paris).
Discover masterpieces of silent film under the same conditions as the first cinema screening, which were accompanied by an improvising pianist.
Discover the development of cinematographic techniques in the Equipment Gallery (Galerie des Appareils) or the history of cinema and Pathé with regular exhibitions in the Collections Gallery (Galerie des Collections).
To pass on the magic of the first years of cinema to young cinema-goers, The Foundation organises numerous workshops in cinema techniques for families and school groups.
