The glamorous Musée D’Orsay picks up where the Louvre left off, specializing in fine artwork from the late 19th century to the early 20th century, including countless works by Impressionist masters Monet, Renoir and many more. The museum was a train station in a former life and is a piece of art in its own right.

Not to be outdone, the Centre Pompidou stands out from the crowd with its radical inside-out architecture and chic Marais address. A ride on its famous outdoors escalators is worth the trip alone and inside you’ll gain access to largest modern art museum in Europe.
