The Musée de Cluny is housed in a blend of Gallo-Roman ruins and a Gothic mansion that once served as the residence of the abbots of Cluny. It reopened in 2022 after extensive renovation and now presents a thematic, chronological journey through 1,000 years of medieval history.
The museum is most famous for the « The Lady and the Unicorn » tapestries—a series of six 15th-century masterpieces symbolizing the five senses and a mysterious « sixth sense. »
