Paris1972-Versailles2003

I am coming back at your with my Paris city of lights and beauty beyond description. This is the museum on the history of Paris and well worth your detour. Paris has a lot of museums and many work of arts that do not find the public space for lack of money space or else but the treasures are huge kept in many buildings and basements all over France. I found me these pictures in my cd rom vault and they should be in my blog for you and me, Therefore, here is my take again on the Musée Carnavalet of Paris, part II !!! Hope you enjoy the post as I.

One great museum of Paris, the Carnavalet museum is in a nice area, and full of the history of Paris, the city museum. The main entrance of the museum is located at 23 rue de Sévigné, 3éme , metro St Paul line 1.  The Carnavalet museum consists of the  Carnavalet hotel itself, and the Le Peletier de Saint-Fargeau hotel, connected by a gallery on the first floor. 3,800 works and objects are exhibited in the permanent journey. Among the hundred rooms that make up this route, 34 are decorations rooms, mainly 17-18C. These rooms, sometimes called “Period Rooms”, constitute one of the peculiarities of the museum. The museum retains more than 625,000 works, objects and documents, varied in their nature: furniture and decorative art objects, paintings, sculptures, archaeological collections, but also photographs, manuscripts and autographs, posters, prints, drawings, coins and medals , Small objects of history and memory … The museum preserves and also exhibits collections related to the history of art and the history of France. In 1989, after its restoration and its development, the Le Peletier hotel, was connected to the Carnavalet hotel by a gallery crossing the Lycée Victor-Hugo and was open to the public. The archaeological crypt of the Notre -Dame forecourt was attached to the museum in August 1999.
