There's a reason the Louvre is the most visited museum in the world, but it's far from the only museum in Paris! In fact, no matter what interests you, there's a museum about it in our new guidebook, 111 Museums in Paris That You Shouldn't Miss.
And our authors are hitting the road! Below is the upcoming schedule of speaking events:
Co-authors Anne Carminati and James Wesolowski will be sharing stories and insights about museums all across the City of Lights. From fine arts and history, to medicine and science, to butterflies and carousels, and plenty of curiosities, there is truly a museum for everyone somewhere in Paris.
