Paris Navy Museum

Located in the Western wing of the Palais de Chaillot (also called Trocadero), the Paris Navy museum (Musee de la Marine in French) presents a collection of ship scale models from the 17th century to the present time (right and below).

The visit makes you regret the colorful old time sailing ships, which hopefully come back to live through events like Brest 2000 in Britanny. The museum also pays a tribute to the very lively French sailing school, specially alive in Britanny.

The visit also provides splendid views on the Eiffel tower from outside the museum.
