An opportunity to discover the Musée de l'Orangerie, a wonderful place on the banks of the Seine, opposite the Place de la Concorde.
Built in the purest classical style, the Orangerie du Jardin des Tuileries was completed in 1852. A splendid museum, it houses one of Claude Monet's most famous works, the Water Lilies suite, as well as other pictures painted in his gardens at Giverny. Other masterpieces on display include the Jean Walter and Paul Guillaume collections. You can also contemplate several masterpieces by the great masters of modern painting: Derain, Laurencin, Matisse, Picasso, Cézanne... Numerous temporary exhibitions are also organized.

Il se visite agréablement en 1à2 heures et on s'y bouscule moins qu'à Orsay
Le musée n'est pas très grand, et le coût, aligné sur celui des autres musées, paraît donc un peu exagéré...
