The National Gendarmerie Museum (French - Musée de la Gendarmerie nationale) is a museum on the history of France's National Gendarmerie. It is sited at 1-3 Rue Émile-Leclerc in the town of Melun.
It first opened in 1946 but has since been repeatedly extended. Thanks to a protocol signed in 2005 between the Minister of Defence, the communauté d'agglomération Melun Val de Seine and the town of Melun, it closed between 2007 and 2015 for a complete refurbishment and redisplay[1]·[2] in a building near the Gendarmerie's officer-training establishment.[2]
It has over 30,000 objects, documents and photographs, including over 1,000 photographs.[3] 2000 of these objects, documents and photographs are displayed over 1200 square metres of permanent display space.[4] There is also a 200 square metre temporary exhibitions space, a 135 square metre reading room, a conference room and education spaces. The Museum was made a 'Musée de France' by France's haut conseil des musées on 14 January 2011.[5]
