Modern and Contemporary Architecture

The collection in the Modern and Contemporary Architecture Gallery, which was put together for the opening of La Cité d’Architecture, stands out by its diversity and wealth: full-size element converse with models, drawings, historic films and photographs to provide a look at architecture and the city from the perspective as much of the built environment as of daily experience. With the 20th-Century Architecture Archives Centre, this collection represents one of the most important historical resources dedicated to French production in the modern period.
