Musée Nissim Camondo

by shrimp56 - last update: Dec 31, 2005

The story behind this museum is a sad one. The owner of the house that backs up on Parc Monceau, collected everything 18th century. When both his children were killed in war he left the house to the state.
The enormous Sevres dinner service catalogues the birds of the world.
Even the extinct dodo bird!
