Havana - Museo Napoleonico

The Museo Napoleonico in Havana displays the private collection of Julio Lobo, who was a collector of all things Napoleon. Lobo hired people to find and purchase Napoleonic mementos and memorabilia for his personal collection. When Lobo left Cuba in 1959 his collection was purchased by the Cuban government and is now housed in the Museo Napoleonico.

On display are personal items belonging to Napoleon, including one of his teeth and a lock of his hair. The Museo Napoleonico also contains Napoleon's death mask, as well as two portraits of the man, done by Andrea Appioni and Antoine Gros, a library of related topics, and weaponry. In total the collection contains more than 7,000 pieces.
