Photography Museum in Paris

There are often photo exhibitions at the Hôtel de Ville, and in its old location the Musée de la Libération de Paris had a lot of photos.

The Musée Albert Kahn is on my list of must see one day

Thank you Simon. I will be sure to check the locations and stop by both! Very appreciated.

The Fondation Henri Cartier-Bresson is a small space, only worthwhile if you have a specific interest in the current exhibit (and even then, it feels overpriced, you can be done in 30 min). There is no permanent collection on display (or maybe just a few items).
The MEP is the main one; I have not been in several years but their exhibitions are popular, I see lines whenever I pass by.

Thank you Balso, helpful information. Will look more into MEP and most likely skip FHC-B.

I’ve seen a number of great exhibits here over the years:

You might check out the Jeu de Paume and see if any of their current exhibits are of any interest.

The Jeu de Paume showcases photography. We have been to both stunning and ridiculously mediocre shows there. We have not had good luck at Cartier Bresson -- depend on what is being displayed.

We have twice been to Willy Ronis exhibits in Paris and they were each quite wonderful. One was at the Monnaie and the other in a gallery in the 19th.

We have seen some fine things at Maison Europpeene de la photographie.

You have to see WHAT the exhibit is

The Liberation museum does have quite a number of photos and videos/home movies from the war. The ones that were amazing to me were taken by a guy who had a hidden movie camera mounted in a bike basket and pedaled around Paris. It’s free, may be closed Mondays as it is a City of Paris Museum, so check their website.

Here's a list of every photo exhibit at this moment in Paris:

Thank you for all the replies and recommendations. Very appreciated!

thanks Bets -- we will be there next week and love photography. In noticed that Cartier Bresson has a Weegee exhibit which ought to be interesting.

Thanks Bets and yes, Janetravels, the Weegee exhibit does look very interesting.
