PARIS AT THE TIME OF VICTOR HUGO'S - LES MISERABLES

MUSEE CARNAVALET.

We liked this exhibition : An exhibition which proposed a totally new interpretation of Les Miserables, which sees paris as the main character of Victor Hugo's novel. Like a wandering investigation, it follows the path and chronology of the book, delving visitors into the heart of the tale on the trail of Jean Valjean, Cosette, Fantine and Marius...Paris circa 1815 is revealed , brought to life through around 220 paintings, photographs, maps, engravings and works of art, almost all from the rich collections of Carnavalet.

Many more exhibition to come at the Musee Carnavalet.


We have at least 3 apartments close to the Carnavalet musuem:
One is a furnished studio rental placed on the street de Tournelles (see picture). another one is a one bedroom apartment rental on the street called Pas de la mule (just near the famous place des Vosges). You can also select this long term rental on Guillemites street
