Paris Museums

Paris Museums posts focus on planning rather than on art history. Articles cover the Louvre and how to enter through the Carrousel rather than the pyramid queue, Musee d’Orsay opening late on Thursdays, the small Musee Marmottan-Monet for the Water Lilies, the Musee de l’Orangerie for the late Monet panels, the Picasso Museum in the Marais, the Rodin Museum garden, the Pompidou for modern and contemporary work, and the smaller Cluny medieval museum. There are practical notes on the Paris Museum Pass, on the first-Sunday-of-the-month free days and on the long lunchtime queues.
