The Museum of Lost and Found
Paris is famous for its museums: The Louvre,
Musée d’Orsay and Centre Georges Pompidou, to
name a few. But not many people know about the
Museum of Lost and Found. It was founded over
200 years ago by Napoleon to collect lost objects
from the streets of Paris. Originally, it was an office
where the police kept all these lost items. Today, it
is a unique museum; inside you can see some of
the most interesting and unusual objects in Paris. In
the past the museum was closed to the public but
today tourists can take a look at what is inside.
Many different objects are lost each week. The most
common items are keys, umbrellas and gloves. The
police often find them on different forms of public
transport: trains, buses, the Paris Métro, taxis and
the airport. The objects change with the seasons; in
winter you can see coats, hats and even skis. In the
summer, roller skates and sunglasses are common.
The police not only wait for people to come and
claim their items, they also do detective work to try
and identify the owners. One year, they found a
small bag full of diamonds and a doctor’s business
card. They called the doctor, who identified the
owner of the diamonds, a woman living in New
York. She lost them while she was on the Métro.
She caught the first plane back to Paris to get her
diamonds. Most objects are only kept for three
months because so many new items arrive every
day and there is no room to store them. However,
the police keep extraordinary or very valuable items,
for instance, five human skulls, a leg made out of
wood, a box of 200 blue butterflies and two wedding
dresses! In one small room there is the largest
collection of one object: 3,500 mobile phones.
Sometimes one of them rings and the owner is
happily reunited with their phone.
