The Dubocage de Bléville Museum is a significant cultural institution located in the city of Le Havre, in the Seine-Maritime region of France. The museum is housed in the former Dubocage de Bléville mansion, a historical building dating back to the 17th century. This provides a unique setting for the museum, adding to the overall experience of visiting.
Exhibition Spaces and Collections
The museum offers a variety of visiting spaces spread across the ground floor and the first floor. These spaces house the museum's permanent collections, which are regularly complemented by temporary exhibitions. These exhibitions often relate to the history of Le Havre, major political events, and maritime trade, providing a diverse range of topics for visitors to explore.
Chinese Porcelain Collection
One of the highlights of the museum is the fabulous collection of Chinese porcelains on the first floor. Some of these pieces are from the East India Company and were donated to the museum by Miss Louise Charles de Malmain in 1923 and Mrs. Langevin in 1902. These delicate objects provide a glimpse into the commercial exchanges that took place between Le Havre and China during the 18th and 19th centuries.
