THE OUTSIDE :
A wonderful 19 th century mansion

Jacquemart André Museum
The outside itself is worth coming to the place : a large and beautiful mansion house, XIX century style, built by the architect Henri Parent.

Nélie Jacquemart
The Jacquemart-André museum was named after its owners : Edouard André (1833-1894) and Nélie Jacquemart (1841-1912). It’s was the couple ‘s private home.
THE MUSEUM :
a grand and gorgeous 19th residence.and a wonderful collection of Italian art.
The Museum display the art they collected during their lives. Thus, they devoted a considerable fortune to buying works of art especially in Italy where they use to go frequently.
Though it’s in France and it gathers mainly Italian art, I felt during all my visit a type of British touch in the air… Strange.
THE CAFE/RESTAURANT
an exquisite place to have a break, a meal or a 5 o’clock tea
I had a very nice break in the café which is located inside the museum. Such an exquisite place…! I loved it as much as the welcoming and the food. It’s not a restaurant run by a great chef, but the food is really nice. If you are vegetarian, you’ll surely be pleased too. And a great choice of delicious pastries.
I enjoyed being in such a beautiful and luxurious as intimate and relaxing place.
My advice :
- You’ll surely enjoy this place. And don’t miss the Café/restaurant which is really worth it. It’s gorgeous.
- If you come when the weather’s fine, experience the terrace of the Café.
- If you plan to go the “Printemps” department store (either for shopping or for the view over Paris from the rooftop), you can plan the 2 visits on the same day : the Museum Jacquemart André is about 20 minutes on foot from Le Printemps department store (on the same Boulevard Haussmann).
