Museum of Decorative Arts
(Les Arts Decoratifs)

What a spectacular museum, enormous and magnificent collection of artworks and historical paintings. I visited here during the La naissance des GRANDS MAGASINS 1852-1925 mode design jouets publicité an exhibition The Second Empire witnessed the indisputable rise of the bourgeoisie. This new social elite of industrialists, bankers, and traders, drivers of economic growth, shared with Napoleon III the conviction of the benefits of economic liberalism. I learned so much from the museum I like to take my time very well and slowly reading each captions of the painting or artwork. Enormous museum with rooms upon rooms furnished in the original style, plus nicely curated exhibits. Very good selection from the 19th and 18th century. The museum upper floors go quite high and offer a view of the tuilerie gardens. The collections on the top floors get quite conceptual, the view alone is worth it. World class museum, similar to the viennese museum of furniture. Note that decorative arts are a special focus so be prepared to see a lot of furniture and vases. Watch out your bags and belongings not to get to swing too much to fragile objects in the museum.

Great collection of historical artworks and grand furniture pieces, was hoping to see some fashion but no such luck, a lot of exhibits were in construction. The gift shop is neat too and the prices range a lot so you can deffo get something no matter your budget. Accessibility is great too as I arrived at the back door but security still allowed me and my mum in as we are both disabled 🙏🏽 much appreciated, even the airport made us walk around for special assistance which is quite counter-productive... free for disabled people when you provide proof!

I loved this place, especially the Paul Poiret exhibit. I am a big fan of fashion and art nouveau design and there was a lot of it here. This was one of the best places I have visited in Paris.

One of my favourite in Paris. Lots of things to see if you are a fan of decorations (from long time ago till modern time now). In one angle you can see both Olympics ballon and Tour Eiffel. Nice display, not many people, quiet. Highly recommend!
