Jacquemart Andre Museum
When visitors cross the museum threshold, they enter what was the private residence of a pair of inveterate collectors who devoted their entire lives to building their artwork collection.
Built by Edouard André and his wife Nélie Jacquemart, both avid art collectors, in the new Paris being laid out by Baron Haussmann towards the end of the 19th century, this private mansion offers visitors a unique opportunity to explore a wealthy 19th century home, with its state rooms, monumental staircase, winter garden, private apartments, reception areas and more.
