One must see in Habana, spectacular collection of Napoleon’s belongings and furnitures.
I enjoyed it, nice collection. And even if you don't have much interest for Napoleon, the building itself and the view from it is worth seeing.

The Museo Napoleónico (Napoleonic Museum) is located in a construction that was originally used as a home by Orestes Ferrara, one of the authors of the collection currently exhibited in the museum. It is a mansion inspired by a 16th century Renaissance Florentine palaceand built in the 1920s by architects Govantes and Cabarrocas. The mansion, located in the district of Vedado (Municipio Plaza de la Revolución) of Havana, was built in Italian marble, wrought iron and finest quality woods.
The entry is 3 cuc. The collection is really beautiful hence it’s worth a visit if you are a Napoleon fan or if you just like antique furniture etc. plus you have a great view over Havana!
Muy recomendado. Una colección muy completa sobre la figura del primer cónsul y emperador. El edificio es expectacular

The Napoleon Museum is a very special place in the middle of La Habana. I highly recommend taking the guided visit to understand the history behind this crazy collection. It's a bit hard to find it so you might want to pin it on Google maps.
Неожиданным открытием для нас стал Наполеоновский музей, на который мы буквально наткнулись, возвращаясь с площади Революции. Расположен в четырех-этажном здании. Отличный музей, подлинные посмертные маски Наполеона, его личные вещи, предметы эпохи Наполеона, богатая библиотека, наборы посуды, бытовых вещей и предметов, другие прекрасные, редкие и уникальные экспонаты!!! Посещение Наполеоновского музея - это - наша большая Удача! Будете в Гаване, выберите время и обязательно посетите этот музей! Не пожалеете!
Parece que de momento puedes ver a Napoleón sentado. Museo bien conservado.
Great collection and great views!
La collezione di memorabilia napoleoniche è molto ricca, pur non sorprendendo certo un visitatore europeo. Tuttavia il museo merita assolutamente una visita. Si tratta di una casa meravigliosa, restaurata con la consueta intelligenza da parte dell'Historiador de la Ciudad. Si respira l'aria di ricchezza dell'Avana di inizio Novecento. L'esposizione degli oggetti d'uso e delle opere d'arte è integrata in modo perfetto negli ambienti del palazzo e permette di godere entrambi (contenuto e contenitore) in modo superbo. Un tuffo sia nella storia europea che in quella cubana. Da non perdere.
My favourite place in havana and onw of my favorites around the world
