Musée Cognacq-Jay offers a delicate, quiet escape from the bustle of surrounding Marais. It's small and quaint, so perfect if you have limited time on your hands – it was just right for a free morning before catching an early evening flight without needing to worry about getting stuck behind crowds.
The collection was amassed by Théodore-Ernest Cognacq and his wife Marie-Louise Jaÿ, the founders of La Samaritaine department store, with an emphasis on 18th century France.
