Museum of the History of France

Our Prince-President in his great kindness and wishing to strengthen the great idea (it is) of "national identity ", announced last Tuesday, January 13 its intention to create a museum of History of France (!) because (he says) "there is no place to question the history of France as a whole . "He asked us to choose a" symbolic place "for this place ...

But he knows only that Paris has no less than ... two museums of the history of France, one in Versailles and the other, the oldest, at the Hotel de Soubise . Certainly the latter museum is not currently labeled " museum of France" but the NA have been engaged for several years a project renovation and redesign this History Museum of France installed in the Hotel de Soubise since 1867 by Napoleon III (And it will be recalled in passing that this same hotel Soubise historical archives hosted by imperial decree of March 6, 1808: Do not miss our special exhibition Memoirs of future 250 original pieces for most never before shown, which is being held until June 15, 2009 and whose Mandrake, archivist, has praised in one of his posts - it reads just as valuable reflections and problems of exhibitions Heritage wrote ).

We would more tickets to chronicle the history of the Museum of History of France Hotel de Soubise, but right now I am busy with the exhibition on the Interim Revolutionary Courts (Court of Ten, criminal court and interim 17 August 1792) but I refer you to bet AE II 1-1444 (the old capital of the Museum - 1867) which gives a time series of the original documents (the Merovingians to 1795) that had been exposed to museum of the history of France and the National Archives Catalogue published by A. Maury in 1872 and prepared by the Marquis de Laborde (the father of this museum) in 1867 under the title Museum Archives of the Empire. Original documents in the history of France and autographs of famous men , etc..

To return to this "super" Museum of the History of France, including the announcement will be made probably by the end of 2010, I do not see how he could escape the Quad-Rohan Soubise, but this is how Price! Indeed, when the materials have left this site, it is highly likely that we will welcome the minutes of the notaries after 1935, and it will be well packaged, preserve, communicate! What place will the future archivists (we will not be there) to conduct Archival these tasks? Coexistence of this great museum with the National Archives is in my humble opinion to reconsider further before embarking on major projects, not including the amount thereof (I guess at least 50 million euros) ... all that in the name of "national identity" ... why not ... but ...

Meanwhile, again, for an idea of the Archives, go (quickly!) visit Memoirs of future ...
