Museum near 16th Arrondissement, 1 of 6: Cité de l'Architecture et du Patrimoine


The Cité fills part of the Palais de Chaillot with full-size plaster casts of French cathedral portals and statues, full-size copies of medieval wall paintings, and a modern architecture gallery of models, drawings and building fragments. Kids can walk right up to carved saints and doorways usually seen high on a facade.
Weekends and school holidays bring family tours and hands-on workshops.
