Galerie nationale du Jeu de Paume, Art center in Paris, France
The Galerie nationale du Jeu de Paume is a contemporary art center located in the Tuileries Gardens.
Originally built as a tennis court during the reign of Napoleon III, it was used to store Nazi plunder during World War II.
Today, it hosts exhibitions of modern and postmodern art, contributing significantly to Paris' cultural scene.
It's open from Tuesday to Sunday, with free admission on the first Sunday of each month.
Despite its name, the gallery no longer has any connection to the game of 'jeu de paume'.
