About this activity
Visit: Musee d'Orsay, 1 Rue De La Legion d'Honneur, 75007 Paris France
Building
The Musée d'Orsay is located in an old train station that was inaugurated in 1900 on the occasion of the World Exhibition in Paris. The station had a high traffic of trains until 1939.
Since the end of the Second World War the station was left in neglect and in 1960 it was planned to demolish it.
It was in 1977 when the station got rid of its fatal fate thanks to the transformation of the building into a museum, which was inaugurated in 1986.
At present the building still retains the old charm of the train station that it housed in the past.

We visited d'Orsay after a morning ar Giverny to especially see the Monets. There were at least 400 people waiting in a line to buy tickets and we just walked in. Skip the line tickets are worth it.
