muse des arts et mtiers

The Muse des Arts et Mtiers is a museum in Paris that houses the collection of the Conservatoire National des Arts et Mtiers, which was founded in 1794 as a depository for the preservation of scientific instruments and inventions. Since its foundation, the museum has been housed in the deserted priory of Saint-Martin-des-Champs on Rue Raumur in the 3rd arrondissement of Paris. Among its collection is an original version of the Foucault pendulum. The museum appears in literature as the scene of the climax of the novel Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco.
