Musée de la Chasse et la Nature
3rd arrondissement, Paris
"A wild mix of hunting- and nature-related objects—taxidermy polar bears, carved ivory shotguns—alongside rotating contemporary art installations."
If you are looking for a slightly different museum in France, visit the Musée de la Chasse et la Nature. The historic site swaps art and architecture for taxidermy and hunting relics. A collection of 7,000 pieces across 2 former townhouse estates includes a gold-studded pommel rifle, hand-painted porcelain plates, and elegant furniture made with antlers. In addition to a permanent collection, rotating exhibits, and special events are available.
