Anh Nguyen
★★★★★2 weeks agoOne of my hidden gems in Paris. I didn’t expect much at first since admission to the permanent collection is free, while most others charge an entrance fee. But so glad I ended up spending the entire afternoon here. The museum is spacious, with an impressive collection. Alongside lesser-known works by renowned artists like Matisse, Bonnard, Soutine, and Modigliani. They also host temporary exhibitions that are worth visiting, and are surprisingly affordable. Cant recommend this enough!
Analise Lai
★★★★★4 months agoOne of the best museums in Paris. I really enjoyed the work the Spirit of Electricity displayed in the main hall. You can tell the museum puts a lot of effort to make the interactive display. Also, it is FREE for everyone to see the permanent exhibition. Highly recommended this beautiful place.
