The Museum of the Middle Ages

Today we went to the Museum of the Moyen Age (Middle Ages) or the Cluny Museum.  Here are a few photos of the buildings.  It used to be a abbey of the Cluny order so it's a fantastic old building.  And there is a VERY old Roman bath next to it/incorporated into it.  It's fantastic.



Some great old stained glass is in the collection - this is one of the ones I liked.

And this is just something that caught my eye.  

I'll post a few pictures of some of the tapestries in the next post.  This museum has an amazing collection.
