Impressionist journey

Dive into the heart of Impressionist history at the musée d’Orsay, the magnificent former railway station made of glass and steel, which opened in 1900 for the Exposition Universelle. A multitude of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist masters await you, from Manet to Van Gogh, Degas, Cézanne and, of course, Monet.

Next, head to the musée de l’Orangerie. Set in the Tuileries Garden, a 10 minutes’ walk away from Orsay, it will complete your Impressionist immersion on a poetic note. In its two large oval rooms, you will discover Monet’s monumental “Water Lilies” suite stretched around the walls. Take the time to sit or stand in the centre of the room and contemplate this unique monumental ensemble, before continuing to the Collection Walter-Guillaume, which boasts works by Renoir, Gauguin and Sisley.
