Places to see in ( Pau - France ) Musee Bernadotte

Places to see in ( Pau - France ) Musee Bernadotte The Bernadotte museum is located in Pau ( Pyrénées-Atlantiques ), it traces the life and career of Jean-Baptiste Bernadotte who became Marshal of the Empire and King of Sweden and Norway. The municipal museum is located in the birthplace of Bernadotte, listed as a historic monument since 1953. This is a typical Béarnaise bourgeois building dating from the xviii th century . The house Balagué offers all the characteristics of a city residence of this century there: construction in pebbles, bricks and stones of size, galleries of wood on court. The pieces bear witness to the traditional living environment of a Bearn family at the time. In 1935 , the birthplace of Bernadotte was poorly maintained and in a bad state. The various people interested in the history of Pau, as well as the municipality of the city, began to discuss the future of this building with a rich past. A company was formed to safeguard the interests of the house. A first collection of objects that belonged to Bernadotte was collected. During the war, the museum was closed, and the financial situation of the company became particularly precarious. The mayor of the time, Louis Sallenave , took over the file in hand to allow the reopening of the museum in good conditions. He contacted the Swedish ambassador in France to set up a viable financial plan. The whole of the birthplace and the collections belonging to the Bernadotte Society were thus bought half by the city and the other half by the crown of Sweden. Gunnar Lundberg, director of the Ticino Institute, was commissioned to install the Bernadotte Museum by the Crown Prince of the time Gustav VI Adolphus . The Lundberg donation still makes up most of the museum's collections, although successive additions have been made by the various kings of Sweden. The life of Bernadotte is thus evoked, from the young soldier of the king, to the general of the Revolution, then marshal of Napoleon, to the Crown Prince and finally King of Sweden and Norway. Paintings, miniatures, watercolors, drawings, engravings, snuffboxes, porcelain, books and rare prints, coins and medals, newsletters, personal souvenirs (saber, spurs, gloves) are part of the collection. The letter in which Napoleon authorizes Bernadotte to respond favorably to his appointment as Crown Prince of Sweden is part of the collection presented at the museum. The royal iconography is also very present with many documents, engravings and paintings, evoking the reign of Charles XIV John (Bernadotte), and his successors.
