Musée national de la coopération franco-américaine

Musée national de la coopération franco-américaine, museum in France

The Musée national de la coopération franco-américaine is a museum in Blérancourt dedicated to the shared history between France and the United States. The collection displays documents, artworks, and objects that document the relationship between both nations from the 18th century to the present day.

Anne Morgan founded the museum in 1924 as the Musée historique franco-américain, in the surviving pavilions of the château where the CARD had its headquarters from 1917. It became state property and passed to the national museums in 1929, and in 1931 took the name Musée national de la Coopération franco-américaine. The collections were moved to Fougères-sur-Bièvre in 1940, and the château was devastated in 1945.

The museum occupies the surviving gate and two pavilions of the château, linked since the 2006–2017 works by a modern junction building; the two historic pavilions are classified monuments historiques. The grounds, called jardins du Nouveau Monde, surround the buildings. The site reopened on 17 September 2011 after renovation by architects Yves Lion and Alan Levitt.

The two surviving 17th-century pavilions were only joined in the 2010s: a linking extension built between 2006 and 2017 now connects the north museum building (1928-1930) and the south "pavillon des volontaires" (1938). The grounds are called the jardins du Nouveau Monde.
