At the very tip of the Cap d'Antibes, the museum is situated in a magnificent location in the shadow of the Tour du Graillon, a former battery Napoleon had restored to a defense post in 1794. It is surrounded by a ten acre park.
The second room in the museum evokes the Napoleonic epic specifically around the Emperor's return from Elba. Visitors can admire a bust by Canova representing Napoleon.
Stella tower displays souvenirs linked with the Emperor and his family: military figurines, arms of honor, proclamations, illustrated documents including many satirical pieces of various origins.
