The year 2021 marks the bicentenary of Napoleon’s death and for this occasion the House of Chaumet, official jeweller to the couple Josephine and Napoleon, and the Royal Champagne Hotel & Spa have joined forces to offer an exceptional experience. For the duration of a trip, you will be able to go back in time by meeting at 12 Place Vendôme.
Until 18 July 2021, the Royal Champagne Hotel & Spa offers all visitors staying in the Josephine or Marie-Louise suites a private tour of the exhibition Josephine and Napoleon, an (extra)ordinary story. An exceptional way to escape for a while.
This exhibition looks back at the highlights of the life of the Emperor and Empress Josephine, of which the founder of the House was the privileged witness. This event reveals 150 works of art, jewels and outfits exclusively to visitors. This exhibition will take place in the private salons of the House’s historic address, the Chaumet mansion in the heart of the Parisian capital.
Why this association between the Royal Champagne Hotel & Spa and the House of Chaumet ? Quite simply because this hotel pays tribute to the Emperor Napoleon through the design and decor of the place. In addition, the Royal Champagne Hotel has a former 19th century coaching inn where the kings of France traditionally stopped and where Napoleon stayed on several occasions on his return from the battlefield. The association came about very naturally.
