Full description

The Orangerie and the Musée d’Orsay face each other across the Seine, which makes them an easy pairing for a day of art. At the Orangerie you’ll find Monet’s immense Water Lilies murals in their oval rooms, plus a lower floor with works by Renoir, Cézanne, Matisse and Modigliani.

A short walk over the river brings you to the Orsay, a former railway station with the world’s best-known Impressionist collection. Each museum comes with a reserved entry and an audio guide, so you can dig into the stories behind the paintings at your own speed.

Know before you go

  • Airport-style security screening applies; large bags and suitcases are not allowed inside.
  • Bring a phone and headphones if your audio guide is app-based.

Frequently asked questions

Do I have to visit both on the same day?

Your confirmation will show the time slots; many people do both in one day since they're so close.

Which should I visit first?

The Orangerie is smaller, so it makes a good morning start before the bigger Orsay.
