Au coeur du quartier latin, le musée offre un parcours exceptionnel à travers près de 15 siècles,de l'Antiquité gallo-romaine au XVe siècle. Il réunit les vestiges des thermes de Lutèce (IIe-IIIe siècles), dont subsiste la salle froide (frigidarium) et l'hôtel gothique des abbés de Cluny, un joyau de l'architecture flamboyante du XVe siècle.Ses collections permettent de découvrir toute la richesse des activités artistiques et artisanalesdu Moyen Age. L'un de ses chefs-d'oeuvre est la tenture de La Dame à la Licorne. Des sculptures évoquent des monuments importants : l'abbatiale de Saint-Germain-des-Prés, celle de Saint-Denis, la Sainte-Chapelle et plus particulièrement Notre-Dame-de-Paris.

In the heart of the Latin quarter, the museum offers an exceptional journey through almost 15 centuries, from gallo-roman antiquity to the fifteenth century. It contains the vestiges of the baths of Lutecia (second and third centuries AD), including the cold room (frigidarium) and the gothic hotel of the abbots of Cluny, a jewel of the flamboyant architecture of the fifteenth century. Its collections reveal the richness of the arts and crafts of the Middle Ages. One of its masterpieces is the Dame à la Licorne tapestry. The sculptures represent important monuments: the abbey churches of Saint-Germain-des-Prés and Saint-Denis, the Sainte-Chapelle and Notre-Dame-de-Paris in particular.
