The Jacquemart-André Museum, the splendor of the 19th century in an intimate setting
ThePrivate Mansion André is not only a museum, it is above all a residence conceived by the Jacquemart-André couple, a true couple of collectors.
Conceived as a showcase to welcome their most sumptuous evenings, the three reception rooms reflect their taste for painting and decorative arts with many masterpieces signed Fragonard or Rembrandt. These modular and intimate spaces are ideal for a few guests or groups of up to 500 guests.
Your guests can wander freely through all the rooms on the first floor for a real trip back in time.
With 30 years of expertise, trust our event team to accompany you in every step of the creation of your reception.

THE GRAND SALON: FINESSE & REFINEMENT
The Grand Salon in rotunda unfolds on a background of gilded woodwork a series of busts executed by the greatest sculptors of the 18th century: Coysevox, Houdon and Michel Ange Slodtz. It is in this very room that the André couple welcomed their guests for sumptuous receptions. For your private parties, this festive tradition continues (still does) with the possibility of offering your guests creative culinary workshops, cocktail bars and spectacular floral arrangements.
THE MUSIC ROOM: GRANDEUR & MAJESTY
Reflecting the spirit of the Second Empire with its crimson brocade walls, the Salon de Musique was once transformed into a ballroom on concert nights. Today, its exceptional volumes offer an ideal space for cocktails and dinners accompanied by classical or avant-garde musical entertainment. Adjacent to the Salon, your guests will not be able to resist climbing the steps of the Winter Garden staircase, an enchanting double revolution construction with a curved banister decorated with splendid wrought iron and bronze volutes.
THE DINING ROOM: CHARM AND PLEASURE
The Dining Room, now the Tearoom, is one of the most remarkable rooms in the museum. Subtly decorated with 18th century tapestries, it is also crowned with a sublime ceiling painted by the Italian artist Tiepolo. This room opens onto a terrace and a generous inner courtyard for a more informal atmosphere on beautiful summer evenings.

A jewel in the city. Must visit this former home af aristocrats. Had the chance to see the wow exhibition "Artemisia
Heroine of Art".
Will definitely return to enjoy the restaurant, we came late and by the time we finished visiting, the restaurant closed. ❤️
A wonderful private mansion with one of the best private collections of Italian art outside Italy. It has been gifted to the nation. Built at the time of the redesign of Paris this extraordinary place has two floors of works decor and furnishings that are beautiful. The rich husband and wife were avid collectors and travelled many times a year to procure works. The app is great. No need to get the audio guide. Also the signage near each of the works is good. Mostly in French but some English translations too.
What a great little museum. Intimate, in a large private mansion, with a wonderful restaurant (Nelie - see separate review).
Tickets are 20 Euros (17 Euros for seniors), there is also a handheld audioguide for an additional 3 Euros.
Book in advance on the website - musee-jacquemart-andre.com. You can arrive and buy tickets, but it can get crowded and they do manage the number of tickets sold each day.
We visited while they were sharing "Masterpieces from the Borghese Gallery" and these were truly masterpieces. Even a philistine would recognize the masters who painted these artworks. There were famous works from Caravaggio, Rubens, Botticelli, Raphael, Titian and Bernini, plus a host of lesser-known artists. (Not to mention the permanent art collection, which has great painters at all times.)
I will say that the lighting wasn't ideal in all the rooms. This is a mansion - a residence, so not designed as a museum to exhibit the art. Most works were illuminated by single overhead spotlights that created bright highlights on the paintings. I had to view some from different angles to be able to fully view and enjoy some of the art. Luckily since they limit the number of visitors, there is enough time and space to find good viewing angles.
Being a relatively small museum, you can see an amazing amount of art within a short time. The building itself is worth admiring as well. (Ask a docent about the hydraulic wall that dropped into the basement to open the main ballroom for large parties of up to 1,000 people.)
The double staircase and the mural behind it are particularly beautiful and interesting.
The museum has regular changes of the contents, so check to see what is being featured when you are planning your visit.
Even if there is no special exhibit, the Museum itself and the permanent exhibits are worth the visit.
If you are fluent in French, there are special VIP visits possible.
Also - they hold actual Opera performances on some evenings - until mid-June 2025, they are performing Verdi's La Traviata and Rigoletto (usually on Saturday nights, occasionally on other evenings). Our trip didn't align well, otherwise I would definitely have attended - seeing a classical opera in a private mansion designed for large groups would be a rare treat.
This small, intimate museum is currently hosting an amazing special exhibit from the House of Borghese in Rome, showcasing works by classical Italian masters. Advance tickets are highly recommended. If you can't get them, be prepared to wait in line; my wait was about an hour.
It was a challenge to appreciate much of this gorgeous private mansion with the crush of people and the rushed lines!
It is a beautiful mansion, Hotel Particular, so decadently renovated. I enjoyed this the most! More than the art, more than the treasures on display, more than the restaurant.
Perhaps I will try again...first thing in the morning.
One this is for sure - buy a timed ticket!
