    Le Baiser") by Pablo Picasso,
    Angela P.

    Entrer au Musée Picasso, c'est un peu comme marcher dans un rêve très élégant installé dans un ancien hôtel particulier parisien. Les escaliers de pierre qui craquent, les fenêtres baignées de soleil et les cours silencieuses vous obligent presque à ralentir. Essayez‑le !

    Great gift shop, attendant was very attentive and professional.

    The lack of professionalism from the staff, not including the front desk and the gift shop attendant. Workers performing security are on their phone consistently, they are not curators and they do not provide assistance to direction of the exhibit. The actual Picasso inventory is VERY limited, so do not expect this to be a big exhibit. Sadly we to came to the other side of town to visit this.

    We were disappointed that the Musee Picasso had so few pieces of his works. The only Picasso's we found were on the basement level. There was an exhibit that didn't feature a single work by Picasso. Possibly better exhibitions may reside here at times, but this visit was disappointing.

    Most amazing museum in Paris. Quiet and peaceful . Much less people . Beautiful arts

    The museum isn't large but it isn't small either. I enjoyed being able to navigate between the multiple floors. As a huge fan of Picasso, this isn't a place that I could have passed up on my visit. The cost of admission is affordable and well worth it. Being able to immerse ourselves in his incredible work was a dream come true. Sure, I have seen him on display in other places but there is just something so special about being at a museum dedicated to him and his life work.

    Admission is 11 Euro per adult. It is not a big museum.There are definitely lots to see here. It is interesting to see how Picasso's artworks evolve over time. The museum has multiple floors (4 floors in total). The museum is really nice to walk in. It is spacious. The paintings of Picasso ranges from the beginning when he started painting or producing artwork to his later career life. You need about an hour to 2 hours to see everything inside. When B and I went, it was not busy. One of the must visit tourist spot.

    It's better to go and take a look at it if you're in Paris; however, I went there with my friends and this museum is spectacular showcasing the depth, breadth and remarks career of Picasso. I had a museum pass but the admission fee was waived in Sundays. Even the building is well worth seeing if you are interested in the historic buildings.

    This museum exceeded my expectations. The Louvre and musee d'orsay are massive and multiple days are needed to fully explore. On my most recent visit to Paris, I was staying nearby the Musee Picasso and decided to stroll on over and check it out. I waited in line less than 10 minutes, so crowds were small. In addition, I added the audio tour. So why 5 stars? This is Picasso's personal collection. It was fascinating to walk through the museum and see his skills advance and evidence of him constantly trying new materials and continuously creating. The museum is not overwhelming and can be explored in a day. The audio tour is modern and well done. The museum is located in a historic mansion built in the 1650's. Finally, when through, you can grab some drinks or snacks on the rooftop and sit outside. Fortunately, I had beautiful weather to enjoy my cappuccino and croissant.

    Musée Picasso is an art gallery located on Rue de Thorigny, Marais of Paris. It's included on Paris pass for admission. The museum's collection Picasso's entire career from 1901 till 1973, and shows the wide range of styles and materials he used throughout his career. The building wasn't easy to navigate your way around and direction wasn't clear. I'm not a big fan of Picasso. If you love Picasso or abstract art I'm sure you would enjoy it.

    This is an impressive museum designed in a mansion where the architecture is as incredible as the great master's art! We were fortunate to visit at the time when American sculpture Alexander Calder's work was also on display. We explored the entire museum in spite of the fact my 6 year old (now 7) was only mildly interested. We had already seen many museums this being the 8th day of our 14 day trip. He was a trooper and even though I didn't get to linger on each work as I would normally, I did get lots of pictures so I can study them whenever I want!!

    The Location: Metro # 1, exit "St. Paul". 15 minutes walk from metro station. No visible sign outside the metro station. Bring a local map with you!! It was quite challenging for me to find the museum. There are two more museums nearby. The Admission: 11 euro (included in museum pass) How can I miss the opportunity to check out a museum only dedicated to the famous Picasso!!! Few floors of exhibitions. Nice museums, very elegant and classy. Very detail display about his career and his personal life. Beautiful paintings~ really enjoy this museum!

    Even a non-art fan can appreciate the work in this museum. The most high-brow of society can be spotted here but Picasso's unique style can be appreciated by all. While he's most known for his cubism, you get to see the wide range of his talent including his stylistic versatility. There's sculptures, photographs, journal entries, letters, and of course several paintings. You won't find his most famous Guernica mural but you do get to see La Muse, Girl before a mirror, and other standouts. We went on a rainy day but there is a nice courtyard that I'm sure is popular in better weather. The ticket is 12.50 euros but there are discounts for students and residents. Worth a visit if you have the time or are a huge Picasso fan. But otherwise there is so much to see in Paris.

The approach to the entrance felt significant, with the glass pyramid acting as a central anchor point surrounded by courtyards, wings, and long stretches of stone façades that hinted at the scale of what was inside. The building combines historic palace architecture with vast modern exhibition spaces. Inside, the experience unfolded through sheer size more than anything else. Galleries branched in multiple directions, each holding different periods and regions, from ancient civilizations to classical European art. I moved through long corridors and open halls, sections that shifted in both atmosphere and lighting depending on the collection. One moment I was in a dimly lit room of Greek antiquities, the next I was under bright skylights surrounded by French paintings. Even without focusing on individual works, the density of what is housed here was immediately noticeable. The layout encouraged wandering rather than a strict path, and I found it easy to lose track of time moving between rooms, staircases, and open gathering areas. Some sections felt busier and more compressed, especially around the most famous works. Other areas opened up into quieter pockets where the scale of the building became more apparent. I appreciated those quiet moments the most.

    A dream come true to finally visit the Louvre. If you want to make sure to get in, you have to…read morepurchase your tickets online, and preferably at 9am when they first open. We arrived an hour early and was second in line so we got to be one of the first to see the Mona Lisa right as they opened and were able to get as close as the public can get. The museum is closed to the public every Tuesday. We walked through the day before and it seemed that groups in conferences is what goes on during those Tuesdays that they're closed. I booked our tickets 2 months in advance, and was able to get the opening day slot for two. And just 20 minutes after opening, the room 711 in the Denon Wing where the Mona Lisa is, got packed. You can spend the whole day here and still not have seen everything. There are multiple floors filled with art work, and luckily there are elevators. There's also a small cafe, and restaurant on the first level, and then another cafe at the second. At the exit it almost turns into a mall of shops and eateries. So it might take you another hour past when you thought you'd be exiting. You definitely want good walking shoes, cuz you'll loose track of how far you walked, even after 3 hours.

It ended up being one of the most enjoyable stops of the trip. Arrival and First Impressions The museum is smaller and much calmer than the Louvre, which made it an easy transition after a busy morning. The space is bright with beautiful natural light and a peaceful atmosphere. We arrived without reservations, and it took about 45 minutes to enter the museum. The Highlights Monet's water lilies are the centerpiece and absolutely worth the visit. The scale, color, and immersive layout of the rooms make it a unique experience. We also enjoyed seeing works by artists like Matisse and Renoir. The park outside was a great bonus and gave the kids space to run around afterward. The Challenges We waited about 45 minutes to get in without reservations, which could have been avoided with advance tickets. Final Thoughts This museum was my personal favorite and a place we would absolutely visit again. It is a great option for families or anyone looking for a more manageable and peaceful museum experience. It is definitely worth it, especially if you plan ahead

Some are furnished with their original decorations, , others have been recreated with furnishings of a certain period. Rooms from historic residences in Paris from the 16th, 17th, 18th, 19th and 20th centuries are in the museum.

The catacombs are part of Paris' abandoned mine and quarry network, and bones were moved to the catacombs because the cemeteries were running out of space. The first bones were transferred from the Cimetière des Saints-Innocents after the cemetery was closed in 1780 due to overuse. The catacombs are an extremely popular attraction, and purchasing tickets in advance is highly recommended as a limited number of people are admitted each hour, and with good reason -- the experience would be extremely unpleasant if overly crowded. However, you can only purchase tickets one week in advance, and the catacombs are not open on Mondays. The two full days we were in Paris were Sunday and Monday, so I had to ensure that we were able to get tickets for Sunday April 7. Fortunately I was successful! Tickets were €29 each, although per the website, they are now €31. Unfortunately, the catacombs are not accessible for people in wheelchairs or who have mobility issues -- the 1.5km long route has 243 stairs -- 131 to descend and 112 to ascend. We thoroughly enjoyed our visit, and if you want to see bones and skulls (no full skeletons, though), the Paris catacombs won't disappoint!
