The Musee Du Quai Branly Museum, known in English as the Quai Branly Museum, nicknamed the MQB, is a museum in Paris, that features art, cultures and civilizations from Africa, Asia, Oceania, and the Americas. The museum commission was established to study the feasibility of building the museum in 1995. When the study was concluded, land was reserved near the Eiffel Tower for the future museum. The Quai Branly opened on June 23, 2006, so a fairly brand new musem will be seeing.
The museum contains the collections of over 300,000 objects in its permanent collection and has 10 special exhibits every year. 3,500 items from the collection are on display.
The pictures and the architecture of the outside of this museum are amazing, I can only imagine how it is inside.
