La Seine flooding 2016-2018
While the richest streets of Paris were hosting the kermesse
of the Fashion Week as it’s costumary at this moment of the year, on January 28th 2018 river Seine raised to critical levels for the second time in less than two years.
As it happened in june 2016, part of the underground service has been suspended for an entire week and the most important museums such as Musèe d’Orsay and The Louvre have put in place emergency measures to secure their artworks.
Hundreds of people have been evacuated from their homes in Paris suburbs such as the town of Villeneuve-Saint-Georges, which is very close to Orly Airport.
