Musée de l'Orangerie
Although it is always crowded no matter when you visit, the picturesque water lilies covering the entire wall are impossible to ignore, and this artwork is definitely worth the wait. Additionally, the museum hosts occasional exhibitions. European students with valid identification can enjoy free admission. Every May, during Museum Night, the Musée de l'Orangerie offers free entry, so don't miss this opportunity.
Musée Marmottan Monet
In the museum, you can admire many works of Impressionism, Barbizon school, Post-Impressionism, and other styles. Personally, my favorite is Monet's works, with an entire floor dedicated to his masterpieces. Another floor showcases Morisot's works. Additionally, the museum provides explanatory manuscripts to help visitors gain a deeper understanding of each piece.
Rodin Museum
The Rodin Museum (Musée Rodin) is located in the 7th arrondissement of Paris and is one of the most important sculpture museums in the world. The museum houses the works of French sculptor Auguste Rodin, including famous sculptures such as 'The Thinker' and 'Balzac'. Here, you can admire some of Rodin's classic sculptures and also visit his former studio in Paris, which was his final residence. The museum also features a beautiful garden with many of Rodin's sculptures. If you are an art enthusiast, a visit to the Rodin Museum is a must.
Delacroix Museum
The late studio of the 19th-century Romantic painter Eugène Delacroix, showcasing his personal works. Today, the museum is managed by the Louvre, so if you plan to visit both the museum and the Louvre in one day, you can purchase a combined ticket to get some discounts. Remember to check the combined ticket option when purchasing to get the discount.
National Museum of the Middle Ages
This museum building is very old and is one of the few remaining 1st-century Roman buildings in Paris. Even the exhibits inside are from the Middle Ages, making it a true journey through time! Here, you can admire sculptures that were replaced during the restoration of major churches in Paris. If you love a rich classical style, this museum is a must-visit!
