Musée Cluny

This is the city's foremost example of civil architecture from the Middle Ages and before, and the museum is one of Paris's treasures.  Here you'll see ancient Roman baths and the statues that furious revolutionaries tore from Notre-Dame, thinking they represented royalty.  The famous fifteenth-century tapestry series of The Lady and the Unicorn displayed in the museum is an allegory representing the five senses; the meaning of the sixth tapestry remains a mystery.
