Musée Jacquemart-André
Museum Paris mansion museum with 19th-century art collection
Housed in a 19th‑century hôtel particulier on Boulevard Haussmann, Musée Jacquemart‑André displays Italian Renaissance paintings, period interiors and a tearoom. Visitors come for curated private collections and preserved salon rooms.
The Musée Jacquemart-André is a private house museum in Paris created from the former mansion and collection of art collectors Édouard André and Nélie Jacquemart. The museum’s rooms retain the character of a late 19th-century hôtel particulier and display a collection focused on Italian Renaissance paintings and French decorative arts.
The collection and the mansion were bequeathed to the public after the collectors’ deaths; the house-museum opened to visitors in the early 20th century and presents the collection in situ within ornate reception rooms and salons. Temporary exhibitions are also staged alongside the permanent displays.
The museum sits on Boulevard Haussmann in Paris’s 8th arrondissement, close to other major shopping avenues and within central Paris.
- House museum: The museum is housed in a 19th-century private mansion that preserves the original reception rooms and domestic interiors installed by the collectors.
