PARIS EROTIC MUSEUM

The Museum of Eroticism (Musee de l’Erotisme) in Paris housed erotic art from around the world. Pieces included paintings, photographs, films, pottery, toys, cartoons and sculptures. They ranged from classical to contemporary times. One floor was devoted to the legal French brothels of the 19th and 20th centuries and included Polisson et Galipettes, erotic short films shown in the brothels. Seven stories high, the museum was located in the Pigalle district of Montmartre. Alain Plumey and Joseph Khalifa were the founders. Sadly, it closed in 2016.

I visited the Erotic Museum in 2015. I was charmed. The museum was a marvelous collection of erotica. It will be missed.
