About
The Alexandre Dumas Museum (French: Musée Alexandre Dumas) opened in 1905 in Villers-Cotterêts in the commune of Aisne, France, where Thomas-Alexandre Davy de la Pailleterie, father of the writer Alexandre Dumas and grandfather of Alexandre Dumas fils, academician, died in 1806. The museum was named a Musée de France in 2002.
The museum is one of the various sites in the city which recall the link between Villers-Cotterêts and the Dumas family: the royal château François 1er, the Saint-Nicolas church, the town hall, the Hôtel de l'Épée, the Abbé-Grégoire college or the family house.
