Cluny Museum, Medieval art museum in Latin Quarter, France
The Musée de Cluny combines a 15th-century Gothic mansion with ancient Roman thermal baths, displaying 2,300 medieval artifacts from its collection of 23,000 pieces.
The museum opened in 1843 after Alexandre Du Sommerard's collection of medieval art found its home in the former Hôtel de Cluny, which served religious purposes.
The famous Lady and the Unicorn tapestry series represents the pinnacle of medieval textile art through its intricate depiction of the five senses.
The museum reopened in 2022 after extensive renovations, featuring modernized displays across 21 rooms with improved accessibility and interactive educational elements.
The museum building integrates preserved Roman thermal baths from the 1st century with a Gothic mansion, creating an architectural timeline spanning multiple centuries.
