Museum of paintings, sculptures and other treasures, housed in the Hôtel Donon in the heart of Paris.

The Musée Cognacq-Jay is housed in the charming Hôtel Donon (16th and 17th centuries). It houses the collections of Ernest Cognacq and Marie-Louise Jay, the couple responsible for the creation of the Samaritaine department stores. Enthralled by 18th-century France, the Cognacq-Jays collected numerous treasures from this period, which they bequeathed to the City of Paris in 1928. The museum offers visitors the chance to discover these treasures, as well as numerous thematic guided tours, temporary exhibitions and workshops.

Belle suprise
Musée gratuit qui appartient à la mairie de Paris. Très beau bâtiment et belle collection d'un couple qui a accumulé les objets plus ou moins impressionnants et pièces artistiques. Joli moment à passer dans ce musée. La visite se fait à l'aide de fiches plastifiées présentes dans chaque pièce qui vous aident à faire seul votre visite. Très pratique! Accueil à l'entrée sympathique.

Petit musée avec de belles expositions
Ce petit musée situé dans un bel hôtel particulier gagnerait à être connu. Les petites expositions temporaires sont très chouettes.

Musée de la ville de Paris situé en plein cœur de Marais, la visite des collections permanentes est gratuite. Celles-ci concernent le XVIIIe siècle et valent la peine d'y consacrer une à deux heures. Elles sont en effet très variées : boiseries, meubles, tableaux, sculptures, porcelaine de Saxe...
