Orsay Museum - Permanent collections and exhibitions

Presented in a former train station, the collections of the musée d'Orsay are among the most famous in the world. The museum presents the artistic production of the period 1848-1914, a decisive period in the art history which gave birth to the masterpieces of Impressionism. You will thus admire great artists such as: Manet, Monet, Van Gogh, Degas, Cézanne, Garnier, Courbet, Carpeaux, Nadar or Guimard.
