Musée Cognacq-Jay: Temporary Exhibition

Immerse yourself in a glorious recreation of an Enlightenment-era Parisian residence at the Musée Cognacq-Jay, right in the heart of the Marais district. This stunning former 16th-century mansion boasts the upperclass trimmings of a courtyard and garden, and a noteworthy collection of 18th-century artworks. Browse important paintings and drawings, and get up close to interesting artifacts. 17th-century snuff box, anyone? How about some Saxony bathroom fittings, or just some good old-fashioned sparkly jewels? A fun trip back in time that'll teach you something, too.
