The contents of the museum within were not the highlight of the visit for us - they mostly contain photography from a long-ranging around the world project that Albert Kahn sponsored, to be honest I think the exhibits could use some editing down and deeper explanation.
But the gardens - wow! Have you ever seen a mini-forest that looks like a theater set because it’s so carefully swept and maintained? Not a leaf out of place but somehow a relaxed beauty nevertheless. There are various Japanese gardens, which I wish there was more explanation about (extremely enjoyable without it but I know there is a lot of history and tradition behind them which I would have love to learn about), all gorgeous and immaculately kept.

Just beautiful gardens. A place of peace. Albert had his fung shui top of mind when he designed this lovely reprieve!
The tickets to the museum are not longer sold after 17:30 if you’re going there plan to get ahead of time and don’t depend on the tome shown on the website which is 18:00

lovely museum and gardens to spend the afternoon, well maintained gardens with lots to explore and plenty of seating to relax
Great museum but even better garden! The exposition isn’t quite big but the garden is stunning : the English part, the Japanese part or the rosary are all so well preserved and breathtaking, especially in the summer. The only inconvenient I found was the location. It’s quite far from Paris and if too far from where you’re staying it might not be worth it to go all over Boulogne just for this museum. Otherwise, if you’re going to the vois de Boulogne anyway, do check the Albert Kahn foundation !
Delightful small museum, mostly dedicated to early 20th century art
A nice surprise a few metro stops away from Paris center. Museum content was quite light (one could have liked some more information about Albert-Kahn himself or why the garden is designed as it is). We bought our tickets on site on a Saturday afternoon.
As such, the garden and the building (by Kengo Kuma!) are the highlights of my visit. Absolutely stunning.
Little gem, as many prople don’t even know about this place.

If you're visiting Paris and want to do something off the beaten track, I recommend a walk around Boulogne-Billancourt and a visit to the 1930s Museum. It has an excellent collection of 1930s furniture and archectural models. After your visit you can go and see some of the models in real life in the streets of the neighbourhood.
Beautiful garden, wish there were more signs about plants and flowers in the place
I really enjoyed the visit. The museum is quite small but its garden is very charming et worth to see! Ideally visit on spring, summer or autumn.
Spoiler: they have a Photo Booth (not print but it will send yours photos to your mail) on the 2nd floor (premier étage en français 🫢)

Top quality display of very special items ranging from paintings to sculptures and furniture. Gorgeous collection in a pristine setting.
Lovely, intimate gallery...go, and take in the temporary exhibits as well.
The museum is small but nice. It has a life-size statue of Sun Yat-sen among other arts. I enjoyed visiting this museum.
This is a collection located at the top floor of Espace Landowski. The 7 euro ticket gives you access to all the exhibitions in the complex, which focus on the early 20th century arts in all forms. If you're interested in art déco, it's well worth the visit.
One of my favorite museums here in Paris. It's a bit off the beaten path, and it can take a while to get there, but it's worth it, especially if you have an interest in this era.
They really have a very nice collection. The furniture and decor is mostly a miss, but the paintings and sculptures are excellent.
Very interesting special exhibits, too.
The place was almost empty when I went (free first Sunday of the month), so I had plenty of room to admire the art.
Oh and the staff are super friendly.
