Passionate about the 18th century, the Count de Camondo had a private mansion built in the style of the Petit Trianon at Versailles. A short walk from the Parc Monceau, the museum houses a spectacular collection of French decorative art from the second half of the 18th century. Admire Aubusson tapestries, canvases by Élisabeth Vigée-Lebrun or items that once belonged to Marie-Antoinette. Also on display, a collection of Sèvres porcelain and furniture by cabinetmakers Riesener and Oeben.

What a cool museum that I had no idea existed. The mansion built by the Camondo family is truly a treasure of France. The architectural style, furniture, paintings, and other treasures have so much history and nearly everything has a story behind it. The ticket price is also not bad and covered by the museum pass. I highly recommend walking through if you are in the neighborhood.

The museum is actually very posh but doesn't really have many visitors. Historically it's fascinating to hear the story of the owner of the museum and his private life. There are many things that date back to life around the first world War so it's super cool. I highly recommend going there.

A very touching monument to the very rich family who once lived here and the way the family tragically came to an end. The son was shot down in WW I. The daughter and her children were transported to Auschwitz and died there. The museum was left to be maintained as was. A great chance to see a home in the twenties, including an equipped kitchen

Great museum that consists of the building, furniture and family history. Allow 1.5 hour at least. Free easy to use audio commentary. Was a private house of a rich banker that donated to state of france to keep as a museum. Next to very nice park. There is a ~20 min film on second floor.
