Paris: route and time of the march against anti-Semitism planned for Sunday 12 November

This meeting promises to be well attended, at least by important political figures. The march against anti-Semitism, planned for Sunday 12 November in Paris at the call of the President of the National Assembly and President of the Senate Yael Braun-Pivet and Gérard Larcher, is intended to bring together ministers, political, associational and cultural leaders and citizens.

The Paris Police Headquarters (PP) detailed the route of this Friday’s march. It will depart from the Esplanade des Invalides (7th arrondissement) at 15:00 and arrive at Place Edmond Rostand (6th arrondissement). “The march will take place along Avenue Marshal Gallieni, Quai d’Orsay, boulevards Saint-Germain, Saint-Michel from 15:00 to 19:00,” the PP clarifies. Participants are invited to join the Esplanade for the Disabled from 2pm to begin.

Parking along the demonstration route will be prohibited, according to the police headquarters. “Traffic, which is very seriously disrupted in this area, will gradually be restored depending on the appearance of the area,” police headquarters predict, recommending motorists “to drive around this area very widely during the event.”

Metro stations are closed

Disruptions to the metro and RER should be expected. Stations Concorde (lines 1, 8 and 12), National Assembly (12), Solferino (12 and RER C), rue du Bac (12), Saint-Germain-des-Prés (4), Mabillon (10), Odeon ( 4 and 10) as well as Cluny-la-Sorbonne (10) will be closed.

Sunday’s “Great Civic March” in Paris should signal a global mobilization in the face of renewed anti-Semitic violence in France in the context of the war between Israel and Hamas, its initiators say. the participation was criticized by the RN and the LFI boycott.
