What to expect

After more than six years of renovation, the prestigious Musée de l'Homme finally reopened its doors in 2015 and welcomes you once again to the Palais de Chaillot for an unforgettable exploration of humanity's earliest moments. Located in Paris and facing the Eiffel Tower, the Musée de l'Homme houses a unique collection of over 500,000 items, including a large number of prehistoric fossils, as well as invaluable objects reflecting the artistic sensitivity and emerging culture of Cro-Magnon man and Neanderthal man.

In the museum's galleries, you will encounter moving testimonies from the most remote periods of human memory: early anthropological busts, reproductions of cave paintings, and other prehistoric artworks will forever change your relationship with human history.
