"This museum located in a charming 19th-century house in the Pigalle neighborhood and dedicated to the Romantic era in France, featuring a collection of paintings, sculptures, and decorative arts from the period. The museum is located on a peaceful street- you could walk right by it if you didn't know what you were looking for- and the courtyard is a particularly lovely spot. Also, it was featured in the last season of Emily in Paris when she and Gabriel are checking out proposal spots."
