The Musée du quai Branly is an absolute highlight - thanks to its modern architecture, the park, the permanent collections and temporary exhibitions, various entertainment events and the panorama restaurant.
The Musée du quai Branly - Jacques Chirac is located in the heart of Paris on the banks of the Seine, between the Eiffel Tower and the Musée d'Orsay. The building, designed by the famous architect Jean Nouvel, is shielded from the hustle and bustle of the quays of the Seine by a huge glass palisade that forms a line with the famous plant wall. Immerse yourself in this dense vegetation and traverse the hilly garden with over 150 different plant species.
