Reims Cultural Quarter is a masterplan strategy for the regeneration of a significant part of the historic city centre, focused around its cultural institutions and public spaces.
The proposals use new buildings to structure streets and spaces, strengthen connections and introduce a richer mix of uses to reanimate the district with tourists in summer and locals in winter. A cathedral museum, gallery, mediatheque, hotel, university facilities, commerce and an extension to the Fine Arts Museum underpin the strategy.
Supported by an economic appraisal, the masterplan guidelines were adopted as part of the City of Reims’ development plan, establishing a framework for the quarter’s long-term regeneration.
