The experience

Direct entry to France’s national collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist works, at your own pace.

The Musée d’Orsay holds France’s national collection of Impressionist, Post-Impressionist and Art Nouveau works — Monet, Degas, Van Gogh, Cézanne and Renoir — inside a converted Belle Époque railway station, with its great glass clock among the collection’s own landmarks.

This ticket is for direct, timed entry rather than a guided tour, giving access to both the permanent collection and any current temporary exhibition, subject to availability, so the visit runs entirely at your own pace.
