Morning:
Musée des Arts décoratifs (Espace Mode et Textile), 107 rue de Rivoli
Guided tour of the "Christian Dior, couturier du rêve" exhibition.
The Musée des Arts Décoratifs celebrates the 70th anniversary of the creation of the House of Dior, with a huge retrospective featuring over 400 of the great couturier's dresses, as well as numerous documents and works of art that influenced his work (E. Vigée Le Brun, Winterhalter, Monet, Brassaï).

Afternoon:
Vimy - Notre-Dame-de-Lorette" tour by coach with a tour guide.
Canadian National Memorial erected on the site of the Battle of Vimy Ridge (April 9-12, 1917).
Notre-Dame-de-Lorette, France's largest national necropolis: nearly 45,000 soldiers are buried in the cemetery and seven ossuaries.
An impressive international memorial, the Anneau de la Mémoire, was inaugurated on November 11, 2014.

After a few years of closure, the reopening of the Château de Blérancourt will be full of surprises. This will be an opportunity to see or discover its monumental portal and the delicately ornamented corner pavilions of the terrace, vestiges of the 17th-century château: a former aristocratic summer residence, the work of French architect Salomon de Brosse.
Then there are the new features: the restoration and reopening of the Salon d'Anne Morgan, built in 1924 by Anne Morgan, director of the American humanitarian organization in the Aisne region during the Great War. And then there are the very recent discoveries of important archaeological remains of the curtain walls (13th c.), fortified house (14th c.) and four-arched bridge (16th c.).
Finally, a visit to the Franco-American Museum and its new, modern exhibition and collection spaces.

Afternoon:
Guided tour of the castle-museum. The former château comtal, with its Gothic halls, is an excellent example of 13th-century civil and military architecture. It houses the Musée de Boulogne: the department devoted to Egypt, with its magnificent Greek vases, is of particular interest, but the museum also presents objects (Alaskan masks in particular) from extra-European civilizations, and a very rich collection of Flemish, Italian and French paintings and sculptures from the 15th to the 19th century.

Morning tour:
Discovery of the Canal St-Martin, with the Récollets lock and its various footbridges, the Arsenal marina and then, on the Seine, a visit to the Île Saint-Louis, the Île de la Cité, the Louvre and the Musée d'Orsay.

As a complement to the "Italian Hours" devoted to painting, on offer this year in the museums of our region, the exhibition presents a collection of drawings and prints assembled by Antoine Vivenel, most of which have never been seen before, illustrating the richness of Italian painters' styles and the variety of drawing techniques.

Guided tour of the Alexandre Dumas Museum, which preserves the memories of the "three Dumas":
general Dumas, the officer of the Revolution, born in Saint-Domingue;his son Alexandre, born in Villers-Cotterêts, prolific author - among others - of "Les Trois Mousquetaires";his grandson Alexandre, author of "La Dame aux Camélias".

Guided tour of the Pavillon Henri II, an outbuilding of the former château of François 1er.
The interior is richly decorated, with wood panelling, coffered ceilings, sculptures, murals and ornamental motifs in gold leaf... Built in the 16th century, possibly by Philibert Delorme, it was enlarged and renovated in the mid-18th century by the Duc d'Orléans.

On Wednesday January 18 at 2pm, a presentation of Champlieu's new rooms was given at the Musée Vivenel.
