Difficult to miss the Louvre museum in the heart of Paris. This former residence of the kings of France is part of the heritage and major places of Paris.

The Orsay museum
Located in a former railway station which looks like a palace, the Orsay museum is renowned for the richness of its collection of impressionist art and Western art from the 19th century. We can observe some masterpieces like « Le déjeuner sur l’herbe » of Manet, « L’origine du monde » of Courbet or « Les joueurs de cartes » of Cézanne.

The Georges Pompidou National Center for Art and Culture is an institution devoted to modern and contemporary creation. It detonates at first sight because of its recognizable architecture with its colored pipes and its external escalators. There are works from the early 20th century to the present day: Picasso, Matisse, Andy Warhol or Anish Kapoor.

In addition to the large conservatories, we find in Paris museums which are more confidential but equally interesting. Discover for example the catacombs of Paris gathering labyrinthic galleries where six million bones are piled up. Also visit the Sewer Museum to learn more about the history of the construction of this evacuation system and the equipment used for its maintenance. If you are with the family, opt for the museum of fairground arts and its superb collections of attractions dating from the 20th century to today.
