Wikipedia description:

The Musée des Monuments français (French pronunciation: [myze de mɔnymɑ̃ fʁɑ̃sɛ]) was a French art museum, created in 1795 on the initiative of Alexandre Lenoir. It displayed sculptures and other objects, many salvaged on Lenoir's own initiative from the destructions of the French Revolution. It was established in the former convent of the Petits-Augustins on the left bank of the Seine in Paris, now part of the campus of the Beaux-Arts de Paris.
