The long-awaited exhibition on Genghis Khan and the Mongols finally opened its doors last October at the Château des ducs de Bretagne, in Nantes, despite numerous attempts at censorship by the Chinese authorities in 2020. There is still time, until the 5th May, for visitors, to come and immerse themselves in the heart of a culture dating back eight centuries.

A total of 450 objects are on display, of which 300 have been loaned by the Chinggis Khaan National Museum of Mongolia. Little treasures which, for the majority of them are crossing the West for the first time. The exhibition Genghis Khan: How the Mongols Changed the World is recognized as “of national interest” by the Ministry of Culture.
