Great place to visit, even saw a military parade while we were there! Impressive amount of weapons and history and many old cannons. Totally worth a visit!

Don’t waste your time

Half of the museum was closed. Exhibitions were poorly sign posted and the staff were rude (even if you speak French). On a positive note, the audio guide is good.

Great history and weaponry on display

Important note: if you’re...

Tim_R, Oct 2025
Important note: if you’re going before two you have to enter from the north side of the building. Apple Maps will take you to the south. Otherwise, loved the museum

Napoleon’s Tomb

Adam_E, Oct 2025
This was disappointing. I could not download the ticket. Had to repurchase at the gate. When I contacted the agency, Viator indicated that they could mot refund the money that I spent. So I had to pay twice to gain entrance.

Excellent historical visit

After getting lost - twice- we arrived at exactly 5:37 and was denied entry. So very disappointing as we left Paris the next day.
