EXHIBITION TICKET

A Day in the Eighteenth Century: Chronicle of a Parisian Townhouse

Type of public : All type of audiences

The Musée des Arts Décoratifs invites visitors to step inside the intimate world of an eighteenth-century aristocratic residence and its inhabitants – masters, servants, and household animals. Featuring more than 550 original objects, drawn from the museum’s collections and for most of them, rarely exhibited, ’A Day in the Eighteenth Century: Chronicle of a Parisian Townhouse’ gather all fields of expression of the decorative arts – wood panelling and wallpapers, furniture, ceramics, silverware, clothing and fashion accessories, toys, and jewellery – to recreate the life of a Parisian hôtel particulier in the 1780s. In a cinematic, sound-filled and scented atmosphere, the visitors wander from room to room as if they were close acquaintances, friends, or privileged guests of the family. Exhibition from February 18 to July 5, 2026. THIS TICKET GRANTS ACCESS TO ALL COLLECTIONS AND EXHIBITIONS. Please note: If the “Free for 18-25 year olds” rate is not displayed, please go to the venue to benefit from it. Subject to availability.
