Édith Piaf Museum

Édith Piaf Museum

Édith • Piaf (Édith Piaf, born Édith Giovanna Gassion, December 19, 1915 – October 11, 1963), was one of France’s most famous and beloved female singers. Piaf was very petite, standing only 142 cm tall, which inspired her stage name “The Little Sparrow.” Her work largely reflects the tragedies of her life, with her most famous songs including “La Vie en Rose,” “Hymne à l’Amour,” “Mon Homme,” and “Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien.” The 2007 film “La Vie en Rose” depicts her tragic and legendary life.

The Édith Piaf Museum opened in 1977 in the 11th arrondissement of Paris. It is a private museum dedicated to the life of Édith Piaf, and visitors must book in advance. The museum was founded by Bernard Marchois, author of two biographies on Édith Piaf. This private museum occupies two rooms in an apartment and houses a collection that includes Piaf’s own porcelain, gold and platinum records, dresses and shoes, photographs, fan letters, sheet music, posters, and vinyl records. It is the best place to get an intimate glimpse into the mysterious and legendary life of Piaf.
