A private mansion turned museum
The Musée Jacquemart-André, a former 19th-century town house, was designed by architect Henri Patent. Designed in the Second Empire style, the building’s perfectly symmetrical layout and decorative facades are inspired by classical models.
The mansion became the Musée Jacquemart-André in 1913, following the bequest of Nélie Jacquemart to the Institut de France, with the aim of preserving, conserving and promoting this unique heritage. It is the fruit of Édouard André and Nélie Jacquemart’s passion for art and culture. As patrons and collectors of paintings, furniture and objets d’art, they have built up a remarkable collection of works from all over the world. Let yourself be charmed for an evening by this timeless venue in the heart of Paris.
Designed on a semicircular plan as a reception area par excellence, the Grand Salon subtly blends 18th-century woodwork and tapestries with contemporary elements. This eclectic decor offers a prestigious setting for cocktails and corporate dinners. The music salon, another of the museum’s spaces, is typical of the Second Empire. Decorated with dark wood furniture and red walls, the layout is reminiscent of Napoleon III’s apartments in the Tuileries Palace.
Today, true to its festive vocation, it is the ideal venue for your corporate cocktail party. Behind the music salon is the winter garden, characteristic of the art of entertaining that developed under the reign of Napoleon III. Flooded with light from the large glass roof and paved with marble, the winter garden is an inviting space for reverie. Finally, beneath a ceiling adorned with a fresco by the great Italian master Tiepolo, the dining room is one of the centerpieces of this private mansion. Furnished with Louis XV consoles in carved wood, and upholstered with tapestries woven in Brussels in the 18th century, it lends its refined setting to your cocktails and dinners.
