The choice is not limited to the present century but streches over centuries. Are you a fan of De Gaulle? You can take a pause without any problem next to the General. You are an admirer of Napoleon 1st? The Emperor will allow you to photograph him, never mind how long it takes.
Closer to our period, new recruits regularly make their entry in the Grévin museum, as Tony Parker the famous basketball player. More than 300 celebrities meet here, representing a period from the Middle Ages up to the present. Among the unforgettable people of the 20th Century, you will see Céline Dion, Monica Bellucci, Michael Jackson, Charlie Chaplin …
After a complete renovation, the museum re opened in 2001. This very fashionable place is ideal to realise a brilliant portfolio without the crush and the endless waiting at the stage-door.
