Napoleon Museum, Historical museum in Monte Carlo, Monaco

The Napoleon Museum exhibits a collection of nearly 1,000 artifacts, including manuscripts, weapons, garments, paintings, and sculptures within the Prince's Palace of Monaco.

Prince Louis II of Monaco, driven by his military background and interest in Napoleon, assembled an extensive collection of imperial memorabilia during his lifetime.

The museum displays personal items from Napoleon's life, including a black felt bicorn hat from his exile on Elba and a ceremonial sword with diamond decorations.

The entire collection of the Napoleon Museum went to auction in November 2014 at Fontainebleau, with pieces distributed to various collectors and institutions.

A painted Sèvres porcelain plate used during Napoleon's final days on St Helena after Waterloo remained among the museum's most notable historical artifacts.
