Official Sponsor of Roma Caput Mundi


The Hausmann workshop restored several of the historic timepieces displayed in the Napoleonic Museum, within the framework of the "Roma Caput Mundi" Project.".

The Napoleonic Museum has a small but coherent group of pocket watches dating from the late 18th-early 19th century, the cases of which are decorated with embossing or enamel work. The Museum also has two other pocket watches, one that belonged to the Duke of Reichstadt - Napoleon's son - and the other to Napoleon III, as well as three extremely fine pendulum clocks from the Empire period. One of them, depicting a biscuit relief of the goddess Urania, is the work of Auguste Taunay. The last item is a precious Swiss-made table clock decorated with enamel and pearls, which belonged to Joseph Bonaparte.
