Centre Pompidou Hanwha, the French cultural institution's first outpost in Korea, is scheduled to open on 4 June 2026 in Seoul’s 63 Building, a landmark on the Han River owned by the Hanwha Group. Developed through a partnership between the Centre Pompidou (whose Paris home is currently closed for restoration) and the Hanwha Foundation of Culture, the Centre Pompidou Hanwha is set to become a new cultural attraction in western Seoul's Yeouido.
