The Cité des Géométries (in French City of the Geometries) is an association located at Jeumont (France) for the promotion of the scientific culture, and especially the mathematical culture. The main characteristic of the project is the hosting of some "invited mathematicians", that spend a several months period working for the Cité. In addition, they take the collaboration of artists, clowns, theatre actors, and other non-academic professionals to make a joint project. The activities at Cité des Géométries include public exhibitions, workshops for schools and public performances.

In 2014 the main activity at the Cité was the theater performance "Mathématiques C/Furieuses", created with the clown-scientists company l'Île Logique and with the school Vauban (Maubeuge).
