Musée Cernuschi - Musée des arts de l'Asie de la Ville de Paris

Since it opened to the public in 1898, the Musée Cernuschi, the City of Paris' museum of Asian art, has brought together almost 15,000 Chinese, Korean, Japanese and Vietnamese objects. A genuine invitation to travel in the setting of the private mansion designed in the 19th century by Henri Cernuschi, the tour of the permanent collections, renovated in 2020, presents a redesigned and enriched panorama of 5,000 years of Asian art.
