Description
The musée de La Poste, renovated in 2019 by the Jung Architecture studio, has been installed since 1973 in the heart of the Montparnasse district. It is centered on writing, history and culture. From seven leagues boots to the heroes of Aéropostale, to the 150-year-old postage stamp panorama in France, the La Poste museum's collections tell a story, not only of a company but also of France everyday. The permanent collections, exhibited on three levels and articulated around a "Totem", present the historical, artistic, philatelic and scientific heritage constituted by pieces of collections as diverse as the first maps of the post routes, the uniforms of factors, artist models, postage stamps, popular items and finally a large collection of mail art and postal art. Temporary exhibitions programmed.
