Musée de la Vie Romantique

The Hôtel Scheffer-Renan was the painter Ary Scheffer's house, and the museum built inside it keeps George Sand's jewellery along with a plaster cast of Chopin's hand. It reopened on 14 February 2026 after closure, and the permanent collection is free to all. The garden behind the house is part of the visit.
