Grevin Wax Museum

The Grevin Wax Museum was founded in 1882 on the model of Madame Tussauds in London. The museum brings back in front of you great people and events of history in realistic wax copies.

In Grevin Museum, you find political leaders such as Charles de Gaulle of France and John Kennedy of the USA, actors as Marylin Monroe and Charlie Chaplin.

Many other well known people from the past and today will welcome you as if they were real, sometimes even confusing you.

Located on the animated Paris right bank boulevards, the Grevin Museum also features spectacular wax scenes from French history.

You will specially admire the realistic scenes from the dramatic 1789 French revolution.

The Grevin Wax Museum features a mirage room and a magic trick theater. Children will like the museum and be excited by its deforming mirrors.
