Fondation Louis Vuitton
Opened in October 2014, the Frank Gehry-designed Fondation Louis Vuitton is a stunning building dedicated to art, culture, and heritage. It can be found in the Jardin d'Acclimatation in Paris's 16th arrondissement.
Musée Marmottan Monet
Musée Marmottan Monet is the best place on Earth to see Claude Monet's masterpieces up close. Visitors can admire over 100 of the Frenchman's works, donated by friends and family over many years, including iconic pieces like 'Impression, Sunrise' and a unique set of his 'Water lilies'. It's not just Monet that makes the museum such a must-see in Paris. Your Musée Marmottan Monet tickets allow you to enjoy fellow Impressionist icons like Gauguin, Degas, and Morisot, as well as a calendar of highlight exhibitions.
Musée de l'Orangerie
In 1922 Claude Monet offered eight of his giant Water Lilies panels to the French state, as a way of commemorating the end of WWI. His only condition was that they be displayed in a suitable venue. The French government found the perfect spot: the Orangerie in the Tuileries Garden. The Orangerie was built in 1852 as a winter shelter for the orange trees that lined the garden of the Tuileries Palace. For a period of time it was also used as a storehouse for goods, a bunk for soldiers, and as a flexible exhibition space. Monet's generous gift transformed it into the Musée de l'Orangerie, a pre-eminent gallery of Impressionist and post-Impressionist paintings. The huge (and hugely impressive) Monet paintings are definitely the main event, but they are far from the only reason to visit. The museum also contains works by Cézanne, Matisse, Modigliani, Picasso, Renoir, and Rousseau, among others.
Musée de l'Armée & Napoleon's Tomb
The Musée de l'Armée is part of a complex of buildings, home to museums and monuments, all relating to France's military history. A visit provides a fascinating look at prestigious old weapons, uniforms and armour. Napoleon Bonaparte's gilded tomb is also here, so be sure to pay your respects. The Musée de l'Armée is located on Rue de Grenelle, at Paris's Les Invalides. It's a great spot in Paris’ 7th arrondissement, near Champs-de-Mars and the French National Assembly.
Musée national Picasso-Paris
This museum is located in a stunning 17th century hôtel particulier in the Marais district of Paris. It's dedicated, as the name suggests, to the great artist Pablo Picasso. Descendants of the Spanish-born artist sowed the seeds for this gallery with works they offered to the French government in lieu of inheritance tax. French law allows for, in exceptional circumstances, the payment of inheritance taxes with artworks instead of money. This exception is only made if the art is an important contribution to France's cultural heritage - which is of course true in the case of Picasso. With a permanent collection, temporary exhibitions, and an in-depth archive, this is one of the most important collections of works by one of the 20th century's greatest artists.
Musée du quai Branly - Jacques Chirac
Suspended on a series of pillars, the Musée du quai Branly – Jacques Chirac features a vertical garden on the Seine side and enormous multicolored blocks on another. And once inside the grounds, the horizontal garden is full of birds and plants, walkways and paths. Inside the museum, it's an anthropological journey around the world via art and artifacts. The permanent collection reaches back as far as the Neolithic period, and spans Oceania, Asia, Africa and the America.
Atelier des Lumières
View impressive digital art projections. Attend special exhibits featuring famous artists.
Petit Palais
The Petit Palais/Musée des Beaux-Arts de la Ville de Paris is a beautiful art museum in Paris located close to the Champs-Élysées – Clemenceau metro station. View a diverse collection of fine arts, including paintings and sculptures. Attend temporary exhibitions that cover a wide range of artistic movements and styles.
Lascaux
Visit Lascaux and see the full-scale replica of the famous cave. View the wall paintings and engravings that are over 21,000 years old. This impressive reproduction fascinates both young and old, providing a look into the past.
Grévin Wax Museum
Visit Grévin Paris, the city's iconic wax museum, and see more than 250 lifelike wax figures in a historic setting. Pose for photos with celebrities, athletes, historical figures, and cultural icons, including Messi, Bad Bunny, Marie Curie, Aya Nakamura, Kylian Mbappé, and Princess Diana. Explore themed displays celebrating cinema, music, fashion, sport, history, and family entertainment, from PAW Patrol and Thomas Pesquet to the Koh-Lanta Tribal Council.
Bourse de Commerce - Pinault Collection
Bourse de Commerce - Pinault Collection is a contemporary art haven, the fruit of a collaboration between renowned art collector Francois Pinault and Pritzker Prize-winning architect Tadao Ando. This 30,000-square-foot museum, a renovation of Paris's domed, 18th-century corn exchange, is one of the city's newest major museums, costing almost $200 million to realize. Hosting 10 or more temporary exhibitions per year, visitors can expect to see a wealth of famous works by the world's greatest contemporary artists, as well as high-profile loans from notable institutions around the globe.
Bassins des Lumières
See digital art projections on the walls and water. Walk through the former submarine base and enjoy the light shows.
Musée Banksy Paris
Musée Banksy is dedicated to the street-art movement and its elusive and enigmatic poster boy: Banksy. The exhibition features recreations of the artist's most iconic works by other street artists, and implores the viewer to think about the purpose and essence of what art is. If you are a fan of the cuttingly satirical art of Banksy, this is an absolute must.
Musée Jacquemart-André
Private museum Jacquemart-André is located in Paris’s 8th arrondissement on the Boulevard Haussmann. It's easy to reach on metro stops Miromesnil, Monceau and Saint-Philipe-du-Roule and it's also within walking distance of the Champs-Élysées and Saint-Lazare train station.
Carrières des Lumières
Carrières des Lumières is an ancient cave located in the heart of the Alpilles, France. Every year since 2012, the venue holds an immersive digital exhibition devoted to a major artist using surround sound and light projections.
