An apogee of European horology - Aile Sully, salle de la Chapelle

Combining items from the lavish collections of the Louvre and of the Musée Breguet, this exhibition of historic
Breguet timepieces also includes masterpieces on loan from private collections and prestigious institutions
such as the British Royal Collections, the Musée des Arts et Métiers de Paris, the Kremlin Museum and the
Swiss National Museum.

Under the energetic supervision of its president Nicolas G. Hayek, keen to contribute to the preservation of
the cultural heritage of Switzerland and Europe, Montres Breguet S.A. is supporting the Louvre by financing
the restauration of the Conseil d’État Rooms, scheduled to house the collections of the Objets d’Art
Department dating from the reign of Louis XIV. (www.louvre.fr)
