VISIT THE ALBERT-KAHN MUSEUM

A unique place combining art, history and nature

Located in Boulogne-Billancourt, at the gateway to Paris, the Musée Albert-Kahn invites visitors to take a trip around the world through its photographic collections and themed gardens. It's a place where images and landscape meet in a spirit of openness and peace.

Why visit?

We discover the   Planet archives, a visionary project initiated by banker and philanthropist Albert Kahn at the beginning of the XXᵉ century to document cultures and landscapes from around the world. Its gardens, composed of Japanese, English and French landscape scenes, offer a parenthesis out of time.

A brief history and anecdotes

Albert Kahn, passionate about peace and cultural diversity, launched a photographic and film mission to more than 50 countries between 1909 and 1931. The gardens, laid out between 1895 and 1910, reflect his taste for cultural harmony. The museum was completely renovated and reopened in 2022.
