Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne - Centre Sorbonne

📍 Rue de la Sorbonne 17, Paris, 75005🏗 1971

The Centre Sorbonne is one of the main homes of Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne, the university created in 1971 when the old University of Paris was reorganized. Here, the name Sorbonne carries a long memory: it reaches back to the 13th century and the college founded by Robert de Sorbon, which became one of Paris’s most important academic traditions. Today, this site is tied especially to humanities, law, and social sciences, the fields that helped make Paris such a powerful university city. Even the local use of Sorbonne in French keeps that continuity alive, linking a modern public university to a medieval scholarly foundation in a very direct way.
