About Musee de lHomme Paris

Musée de l'Homme is an anthropology museum in the city of Paris offering a unique perspective of evolution of mankind. The educational site is located in the 16th arrondissement of the city facing the River Seine with the views of Eiffel Tower. The 2500 m^2 museum was established in 1937 by ethnologist Paul Rivet. This museum is a research center and is a part of seven departments of The French National Museum of Natural History. Musée de l'Homme is home to prehistorical, archaeological, biological, and cultural anthropology. A team of reputed researchers, ethnobiologist, geneticists, primatologists, prehistorians, and many more are available at the center. The museum was built on a vision of being a laboratory museum and hence, it was fulfilled in 2015. The museum holds a permanent exhibition “Galerie de l’Homme” with around 1800 objects on display.

The artifacts in the museum represent Europe, Asia, America, Africa, Oceania, and many more regions from all across the world. The 19th-century collections for art and science are displayed under the name of “envolee des busters’. The collection will make you understand the evolution and the unity of Homo Sapiens sharing 99% of DNA. Paul Rivet’s vision was based on the idea of one humanity, leading to the display of the evolution of human societies through the collection. Explore the Europe Tour Packages gallery features a variety of skulls belonging to different human races and people existing in prehistoric times.
