Museum of Eroticism

Rather uneven, but with some interesting works. The treatment of the erotic in culture was very well done in my opinion. Also the displays on brothels was equally entertaining as well as informative. It only took about 90 minutes to go through the exhibits. Worth going.

For those of you looking to find something different to tour in Paris (other than the Louvre, and the Orsay) look not further.
The Museum of Eroticism is an interesting, inexpensive, and out fo the box look at sex through France’s eyes. Open until 2am and located right next to the Moulin Rouge. It is NOT for the faint of heart, or prudish people. So please, leave your parents, grandparents, and children at home. If you are adult enough to enjoy a different look at art, customs, and delight in the road less traveled, go here. Be careful though, the neighborhood is undesirable late at night (which is of course when we went, around 1 am), but we were fine. The Metro is located right in front of the Museum. My husband and I loved the history, pictures, videos and such of their collections. Some of it deemed a bit campy, but there are a few prize pieces amongst the 7 floors. Cost is around 9 Euros, but hotels and B&B’s usually have coupons for 2 Euros off the price. Go straight up to the seventh floor and work your way down. We were glad we went, even though some people think we are odd.
