Albert-Kahn Museum and Garden

The contents of the museum within were not the highlight of the visit for us - they mostly contain photography from a long-ranging around the world project that Albert Kahn sponsored, to be honest I think the exhibits could use some editing down and deeper explanation.
But the gardens - wow! Have you ever seen a mini-forest that looks like a theater set because it’s so carefully swept and maintained? Not a leaf out of place but somehow a relaxed beauty nevertheless. There are various Japanese gardens, which I wish there was more explanation about (extremely enjoyable without it but I know there is a lot of history and tradition behind them which I would have love to learn about), all gorgeous and immaculately kept.

A big yes if you are looking for a creative Garden.
This place was incredibly well maintained ✨.
Lots of impressive landscaping.
This garden has so many "wow" areas like water bodies, Bonsai trees❤.
It's a Very calm and many photogenic areas .
Do visit it 👍🏻!

It was in a really quiet area, well kept and clean. It was also well organized

What a wonderful Japanese garden, and a very interesting museum. You can also eet great Portugese cuisine. A wonderful day!

I really enjoyed the visit. The museum is quite small but its garden is very charming et worth to see! Ideally visit on spring, summer or autumn.
Spoiler: they have a Photo Booth (not print but it will send yours photos to your mail) on the 2nd floor (premier étage en français 🫢)

Just beautiful gardens. A place of peace. Albert had his fung shui top of mind when he designed this lovely reprieve!

A nice surprise a few metro stops away from Paris center. Museum content was quite light (one could have liked some more information about Albert-Kahn himself or why the garden is designed as it is). We bought our tickets on site on a Saturday afternoon.

As such, the garden and the building (by Kengo Kuma!) are the highlights of my visit. Absolutely stunning.

Little gem, as many prople don’t even know about this place.

lovely museum and gardens to spend the afternoon, well maintained gardens with lots to explore and plenty of seating to relax

The photo museum gives a glimpse of how culture was captured back then and its gardens offers a fantastic and surreal feeling of how gardens are like from different countries. Exquisite and detailed in its execution. Recommended to go with loved ones or kids.

The Japanese garden is so typical!
Good place to visit in Paris

Beautiful garden, wish there were more signs about plants and flowers in the place

Nice museum. The temporary exhibition was really interesting with old photographs from early 20th travels. Great garden (Japanese and french styles) !

The garden has just been reopened to the public after a period of renovation. The first impression when entering this garden is like coming to another world. There is a Japanese garden, French garden and English garden on the museum. Especially Japanese garden with sophisticated design, zen garden, lake with koi fish. Each corner of the garden is arranged according to the meaning of life. Wooden bridges are the highlight of this garden.

Very beautiful. Stunning.
The museum has a small photography collection, it's nice, old photos from around the planet. Nice to see big diversity in one place.
However, the garden is the prime attraction here. Super beautiful Japanese style garden and traditional Japanese houses. Very peaceful and beautiful to walk around. There is a small bamboo area and another area as if its a wild forest. All that near a metro station in Paris.
I highly recommend this place.

I went for the contemporary architecture of Kengo Kuma which was restrained, modest and perfectly suited for this little museum of 18000 images, collected circa 1912 to “document the world.’ The garden, founded by Kahn himself, was the real treat. Ten stars. A little beautiful piece of Japan, a few French forests. Lush and impeccable, one wants to get lost and never leave. Alas Alice, time to grow up.

Fantastic place to discover. Thousands of unique photos displayed, you can dive into them for hours or just briefly observe – in any case you'll enjoy it.

Every turn brought a new view. He created art with nature.

The peaceful gardens offer gently paced sensory wonderment. The museum is not to be missed to properly appreciate the benevolent vision of Albert Kahn.

A great garden walk, the museum is nice as well - but when arriving, come to the garden.
Note: no smoking or eating allowed in the park.

Had a wonderful time both in the Museum and garden. Would recommend to anyone interested in photography and travel photos especially. That’s how it began.
