A hidden gem..
Jul 2021
Re-visited Nissim de Camondo after having just read Edmund de Wall's latest booklet 'Letters to Camondo'. I took the audio-guide in French and was told almost too many details (after having found out how it worked). It is an amazing museum, especially after the kitchen was opened up to the public. I hope more rooms will be opened up for the public. A pity that the bedroom on the 2nd floor(I think) is currently a cinema - earlier one could see Camondo could superwise the bank-employees in the next-door building.
Having the booklet in memory only made it more alive and depressing how the Jews were treated in the French society, despite doing their best to be integrated and supporting and generous..
Since I was there last, a restaturant has been opende i left wing of the building. I did not test it but have heard froma friend that it is good, so next time.
After the visit I went to the Parc Monceau to see the garden of Nissim de Camondo but it is entirely hidden by fence and trees, so very private..

Must see for a taste of belle epoque living
Sep 2020
Beautiful home with collections of three generations including paintings, furniture, sculpture, silver services and a nice look at the inner workings of the household staff. The kitchen is really worth a few minutes. The setting in the 8th arr. behind Parc Monceau could not be more appealing. There are very helpful hand held guides, but so many objects to admire that you will likely plan another visit on your next trip to Paris. A little out of the way but not to be missed

Lovely Private Museum
Jan 2020
This mansion is located in Paris' finest neighborhood in the second half of the 19th Century. The family who owned it experienced tremendous tragedy, but they left their treasures and you can now enjoy them. Make sure you listen to the audio tour, worth it.

Amazing and Sad
Dec 2019 • Couples
This is an amazing and sad testament to the tragedy that befell the Jews of France. As multi-time visitors to Paris, we were moved to find this museum. Take the time to visit and learn what hatred and bigotry mean.

Beautiful residence of a great bourgeois.
Aug 2019
Beautiful museum, worth visiting. Interesting the sad history of the family, it is a real pleasure to visit the rooms of this mansion, both the first and second floors. Also the bathrooms and the elevator or the kitchen, and have a clear idea of how the wealthy classes of the time lived.

former private mansion
Aug 2019
Beautiful,well-maintained former private mansion. The furniture and art work are well worth a visit. It takes you back in time and effortlessly makes you feel that it is familiar yet remote. Perfect taste far from the glitzy attempts today of " recreating" that period.

Insight into a life
Jan 2020
This is a lovely house owned by a wealthy Jewish family with strong collection ethics. The guide gave us an excellent description of the items, and how they fitted into the history of the family. Has a sad ending too.

Important combination of history, art and ethics. Musee Nissan de Camondo brings this intersection to life.

Full of Treasures
Oct 2019
This is a classic 19th Century mansion owned by this family. You get to see their furniture and the treasures that they collected. The story of the family is tragic.
