Presentation

To mark European Heritage Days, the Choiseul Library invites you to explore the ‘France-America’ exhibition on two guided tours suitable for children. Children are invited to come in fancy dress!
The Choiseul Library is situated in the former Galerie des Affaires étrangères. It was built between 1761 and 1762 to house the Foreign Affairs and Navy departments. This townhouse is a key testament to French diplomatic history.

The library is hosting an exhibition to celebrate the 250th anniversary of American independence.
On display are four works by the artist Redpaln, a painter to the armed forces, as well as documents on Franco-American relations.
