The French Museum of Photography, in Bièvres

Photography lover or simple curious, don't miss the French Museum of Photography in Bièvres, located only 20 km from our Orly Draveil Hotel.

Created in 1960 by two passionate amateurs, Jean and André Fage, this stunning museum has gathered over the years more than 25,000 objects and a million photographs, and traces the history of photography from the point of view of technology and uses, from the first camera obscura to the advent of digital technology.

Since its expansion in 2014, a major restoration work is underway, and the museum regularly offers new temporary exhibitions in two galleries, and guided tours, educational workshops for children and adults, activity notebooks, thematic dossiers.…

The Museum also performed an important work of digitizing photographs and cameras, accessible on its website, a real gold mine for all passionate people!
