About the location

Musée Roybet Fould

Parc de Bécon - 178 boulevard Saint-Denis 92400 Courbevoie

Hauts-de-Seine
Île-de-France

Housed in Bécon Park, the municipal museum occupies the villa studio of the painter Consuelo Fould (1862-1927). The main building built in the mid-19th century was enlarged around 1885 when the «Sweden-Norway Pavilion» was reassembled at the 1878 Universal Exhibition in Paris. The red pine facade of Norway by architect Henrik Thrapp-Meyer is one of the few French examples of 19th-century prefabricated architecture. The pavilion has been listed as a Historic Monument since May 27, 1987\. The museum displays works by painters Consuelo Fould, Georges Achille-Fould, Juana Romani and Ferdinand Roybet (1840-1920) as well as sculptures by Jean-Baptiste Carpeaux (1827-1875).
