This is an excellent museum to take you from the long ago past of France’s Merovingian kings on up to Napoleon III and the redesign of Paris. Very interesting coins from the different eras and surprising Roman architecture.

Loved the renovation of this beautiful facility and the ways the permanent displays were organized. The temporary exhibit of the work of Henri Cartier-Bressin was a special treat as my husband and I are both avid photographers.

Super! My husband has had a lifelong love of photography and has always admired Henri Cartier-Bresson’s skill with his Leica, and I was born and raised in Rochester, New York, home of Eastman Kodak.

About: Carnavalet Museum

After four years of major renovation work, the Carnavalet Museum reopened its doors in May 2021. The oldest museum in Paris has had a real rebirth, so expect a breath of new life in a museum that's nearly 150 years old! You'll find more than 625,000 works that tell the story of Paris's past inside.
