Wikipedia description:

The Musée Antoine Vivenel is the municipal museum of the city of Compiègne in northern France, located at 2, rue d'Austerlitz, 60200 Compiègne. It was founded in 1839, following an important gift by Antoine Vivenel, architect and art collector. The museum has one of the largest collections of Greek ceramics in France after the Louvre, some of which come from the collections of Lucien Bonaparte, Napoleon's brother and Prince of Canino, in Italy. The museum also benefits from the deposits of sculpted blocks from the Gallo-Roman temple of Champlieu located about twenty kilometers south-east of the city. The museum also has Egyptian artifacts (including a children's mummy) and artifacts of ancient Etruscans.
