Carnavalet Museum
The Carnavalet Museum in Paris is dedicated to the history of the city. The museum occupies two neighboring mansions: the Hôtel Carnavalet and the former Hôtel Le Peletier de Saint Fargeau. On the advice of Baron Haussmann, the civil servant who transformed Paris in the latter half of the 19th century, the Hôtel Carnavalet was purchased by the Municipal Council of Paris in 1866; it was opened to the public in 1880. By the latter part of the 20th century, the museum was bursting at the seams. The Hôtel Le Peletier de Saint Fargeau was annexed to the Carnavalet and opened to the public in 1989.〔Leri, Jean-Marc,''Musée Carnavalet: Histoire de Paris'', pages 7-8.〕
Carnavalet Museum is one of the 14 City of Paris' Museums that have been incorporated since January 1, 2013 in the public institution Paris Musées.

In the courtyard, a magnificent sculpture of Louis XIV, the Sun King, greets the visitor.〔Leri, Jean-Marc,''Musée Carnavalet: Histore de Paris'', page 41.〕 Inside the museum, the exhibits show the transformation of the village of Lutèce, which was inhabited by the Parisii tribes,〔Colson, Jean, ''Paris: Des origines à nos jours'', page 11.〕 to the grand city of today with a population of 2,201,578.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=Paris.fr: (Mairie de Paris) )〕
The Carnavalet houses the following: about 2,600 paintings, 20,000 drawings, 300,000 engravings and 150,000 photographs, 2,000 modern sculptures and 800 pieces of furniture, thousands of ceramics, many decorations, models and reliefs, signs, thousands of coins, countless items, many of them souvenirs of famous characters, and thousands of archeological fragments. ... The period called Modern Time, which spans from the Renaissance until today, is known essentially by the vast amount of images of the city. ... There are many views of the streets and monuments of Paris from the sixteenth to the twentieth century, but there are also many portraits of characters who played a role in the history of the capital and works showing events which took place in Paris, especially the many revolutions which stirred the capital, as well as many scenes of the daily life in all the social classes.〔Leri, ''Musée Carnavalet: Histoire de Paris'', pages 11-12.〕
