A selection of objects from the museum is also displayed in the Pavillon des Sessions of the Louvre.The Quai Branly Museum opened in 2006; it is the newest of the major museums in Paris and received 1.15 million visitors in 2016. It is jointly administered by the French Ministry of Culture and Communication and the Ministry of Higher Education and Research, and serves as both a museum and as a center for research. The Musée du quai Branly is located in the 7th arrondissement of Paris, on the left bank of the Seine, close to the Eiffel Tower and the Pont de l'Alma.
The museum has been the subject of controversy, with some calling for the repatriation of its collections that were acquired through colonial conquest. Provided by Wikipedia
