Review of Monnaie de Paris

This is one of the most underrated sites we visite...

This is one of the most underrated sites we visited. I researched the Conti 11 before arriving to Paris and our visit did not disappoint. There is a lot to see here and it s never crowded, we did not visit the exhibition portion as we were tired and pressed for time, but the museum portion was extraordinary. There are also interactive exhibits which is mainly for kids but my husband and I enjoyed them as well. We went on a Saturday and it was not busy at all really quiet and peaceful, the only downfall was that the windows showing the workshops had no people working in them, I assume this would be even more interesting to see the people working on site. Still very cool. The current exhibit is on until February of 2020, seen some of the artists work online, worth seeing if you have the time, visiting just the museum portion is 10 euros and museum plus exhibit is 12 euros. Classy little gift shop on the way out. Will certainly go back next time. There is a little something for everyone.
