Milan’s art museum with rotating exhibitions from around the world. Inspiring museum shop, café, and a space where you can also read or work.

Dive deep into the history of Lady Liberty and see the original torch up close.

One of Milan’s oldest museums. Beyond its collection of Renaissance art, it houses Leonardo da Vinci’s original notebooks, yes, the sketches and writings of the genius himself! Plus, it has works by Caravaggio, Raphael, and other masters, making it a must-visit for art lovers who want a mix of history, mystery, and incredible beauty all in one spot.

A massive contemporary art space inside a former factory. Must-see: Seven Heavenly Palaces by Anselm Kiefer.

A stunning museum you can enter for free. Make sure to visit the garden as well, especially in the spring. One of my top recommendations among the Parisian museums.

It’s not a stock market, but a stunning art gallery. After years of renovation, it reopened in 2021, showing The Pinault Collection of art and installations. A warm recommendation, as the building is magnificent in itself, and located in the heart of Paris. The exhibitions are excellent too.

Tucked away in Le Marais, this museum offers a fascinating glimpse into France’s history. Housed in the stunning Hôtel de Soubise, it showcases historical documents, including the original Declaration of the Rights of Man and of the Citizen. The museum’s gardens are also a delight and open to the public (free entrance).

Located in former wine cellars in the Bercy neighborhood, this private museum houses one of the largest collections of fairground objects, carousels, and amusement park memorabilia in the world. It is a "performance museum" where visitors are encouraged to interact with and ride the historic attractions.

Housed in two spectacular mansions (Hôtel Carnavalet and Hôtel Le Peletier de Saint Fargeau) in the heart of the Marais, this is the oldest municipal museum in Paris. It is dedicated to the history of the city, from prehistory to the present day, showcasing its evolution through art, furniture, and historical artifacts.

One of Paris’s most magnificent private museums. It was the lavish 19th-century home of Édouard André and Nélie Jacquemart, who spent their lives traveling Europe to amass a world-class collection of Italian Renaissance art, 18th-century French paintings, and Flemish masters.
