Cluny-the History of Medieval Paris

A former Roman Bath Complex, former Monastery, former Chateau and now the Cluny Musee of the Middle Ages.
Some of the walls of the Cluny contain the  largest remaining ruins of a Roman building in Paris.  In side are some massive rooms of the Roman frigidarium, but photos were not allowed
A small sample of the collection, this is an early "hand cannon," predecessor to the matchlock musket.
