What people say
"A nice place to enjoy art away from the crowds of the larger museums. This museum is located a little outside of the main tourist part of Paris, in a relatively quiet area of town. We went on a weekday in June and had no wait to enter. We were able to leisurely tour the museum and enjoy the displays in a uncrowded setting. At the time of our visit, the museum was featuring the art of Giovanni Segantini, whose work I enjoyed. There is a nice collection of Monet on the basement level. It took us about 11/2 hours to tour the museum."
