Musée National du Moyen Âge or the Cluny Museum - a tapestry by Beausoleil
The newly renovated Cluny Museum in the Latin Quarter is built on the ruins of second-century Roman baths and also has one of the world's finest collections of French medieval art, including the famous Lady and the Unicorn tapestries. It was closed for several years for a large modern addition and complete renovation of the inside. You can now see much more of the collection but I do miss the feeling of antiquity in the older museum. It's a trade-off but it certainly is something you don't want to miss.

Place du Carrousel at the Louvre from the bus . . . in the rain by Beausoleil
Rainy day in Paris so we had visited the Pinault Collection and were taking the bus home. It drove through the Louvre Court and there was a long line of people with umbrellas waiting to get in. We were so glad we had gone to the Pinault.
Ed pointing out Jeff Koons "Balloon Dog" in the Pinault Collection by Beausoleil
The old Paris Bourse has been rethought into an art gallery featuring the Pinault Collection. We spent a rainy day wandering through it. The most fun is the mirror floor under the main dome. The collection is rotated according to various themes so it's good for several visits over several years. This was our first visit.

The Pinault Collection in the 130-year-old Paris Bourse - circular hallway with exhibits by Beausoleil
The 130-year-old Paris Bourse, once a grain and commodities exchange, now holds The Pinault Collection, named for the 10,000-piece private collection of contemporary greats from arts patron and billionaire François Pinault. It is a relatively new museum in Paris as it opened on May 22, 2021. The exhibits rotate and are themed using works from Pinault's vast collection. The exhibit when we were first there was Le monde comme il va or "The World As it Goes." If you don't care for contemporary art, just visiting to view the remarkable architecture is certainly worth the ticket price.

Musée des Arts et Métiers - half of a Citroen by Beausoleil
Converted church with scientific & industrial artworks & artifacts, including Foucault's pendulum. There are all sorts of instruments of measurement, mathematics, physics, astronomy and much more. According to Wikipedia, "The Musée des Arts et Métiers is an industrial design museum in Paris that houses the collection of the Conservatoire national des arts et métiers, which was founded in 1794 as a repository for the preservation of scientific instruments and inventions." I used to do weaving and thoroughly enjoyed the display of historic looms. They cut a Citroen 6 in half so you could see the inner design. There were navigation instruments throughout history and a fun display of robots including a squirrel robot that actually has a job.
