Jacques Marchais (Museum of Tibetan Art)

In addition to the historic lighthouse for which it is named, views of historic Richmondtown and New York Harbor, Lighthouse Hill is also the site of The Jacques Marchais Museum of Tibetan Art which is the oldest Himalayan style architecture in the United States, and listed on the National Register of Historic Places. 

The Jacques Marchais Museum of Tibetan Art has been in existence for over 75 years. Its founder was, from a child, intrigued by Tibetan artifacts and spent her life collecting Tibetan and Buddhist artifacts. 

Thank you for visiting our Museum on The Air at Youtube BUT consider visiting us in person. Sit in the meditation garden, peruse our rare books on Tibetan, Buddhist, and Asian subjects reaching back over 100 years, make a date to experience an event here, and of course take in our collection of Tibetan Artifacts!
