An original experience in Paris

A stunning museum featuring collections,
temporary exhibitions, performances,
cinema, lectures, and a multimedia library
An original experience in Paris
In the heart of Paris, by the Seine, between the Eiffel Tower and
the musée d’Orsay, the Musée du quai Branly - Jacques Chirac is shielded
from the sounds of the bank by a huge glass screen, aligned with
the famous green wall. Enjoy a walk through the garden and its dense
vegetation. Discover 169 trees and around 30 different herbaceous
species.

The collection on display is dedicated to the arts and civilisations of
Africa, Asia, Oceania and the Americas. Temporary exhibits on various
themes, performances and concerts make the Musée du quai Branly Jacques Chirac a lively space where visitors can better understand the
world they inhabit.
After your visit, check out our selection of books and souvenirs on offer
in our museum-shop and enjoy a French meal at Café Branly terrace
or in the Les Ombres panoramic restaurant.
A unique experience, this interlude at the Musée du quai Branly Jacques Chirac will prove one of the most memorable moments of your
stay in Paris.
