Museums of everything
A phenomenal array of museums reflects Paris’s prestigious artisan tradition and colonial past, with world-class collections of decorative, Asian and tribal art. Several Paris museums cover all topics from natural history and anthropology to engineering and space technology, while a range of small specialist museums, often housed in historic buildings, take in everything from coins and ladies' fans to erotica. Note that many museums are closed on Monday or Tuesday
