What people are saying about Army Museum, Paris

The Army Museum is excellent and the grave of Nap. is a must see. I would recommend getting a tour guide to make heads or tales of all the different weapons and uniforms throughout history, so it does not get monotonous. You need about 3 hours+ to do the museum.

The museum collection was much larger than I had anticipated! The layout was great as it lead you through the centuries starting in medieval times through WWII. the mausoleum holding Napoleon was breath taking

No queue, there is a room for luggage if you need, toilets and restaurant! Perfect! Everything’s clean and beautiful.

Incredible architecture and they had a very cool collection in the war museum.

it's good to see napoleon tomp. That's a main attraction if you know history.
