In this virtual museum visit, I’m taking you to the Impressionists collection at Musée d’Orsay. You’ll learn more about that style, meet some of the most famous Impressionist painters and see their paintings.

Impressionists at Musée d’Orsay

Musée d’Orsay is one of the most famous museums in Paris . It’s also a place where you can see one of the best collections of Impressionist paintings in the world. It showcases the style progress, from its beginnings, through the different genres Impressionist painters choose, to influence to the later generations of artists. It’s a great place to get an excellent overview of one of the first modern art styles.

Impressionist collection at Musee d'Orsay

Located in a former train station, Musée d’Orsay is a relatively new museum in Paris. It was opened in 1986, and it’s home to an amazing collection of western art created between 1848 and 1914.

Besides the fantastic collection of the Impressionist paintings at Musée d’Orsay, you can also visit a great selection of Barbizon school, the work of Vincent van Gogh and Paul Gauguin. This is also where famous Edouard Manet’s ‘The Luncheon on the Grass’ is located.

However, let me show you some of the beautiful work of the Impressionists at Musée d’Orsay.

Impressionism

Impressionist painting

Collection of the Impressionists at Musée d’Orsay is a great place to learn about that style. You can see very well how it developed, who were the most important Impressionist painters and see some of their most famous paintings.

But, what was so innovative about Impressionism?

In the mid-19th century, a group of young artists came up with some new ideas about art. They didn’t want to follow the old-school academic way of painting anymore.

Impressionists at Orsay

These first Impressionist painters started to gather together, talk about art and go on little trips in nature. They were mostly visiting a small village of Barbizon, near Fontainebleau forest, just outside Paris.

They started to paint in nature together. Painting the landscapes outside, in the open air, was something truly revolutionary at that time.

Before that time, painters would only make little sketches outside. But, they would finish their paintings in their studios. However, Impressionist painters changed that and made their paintings from scratch to the finishing touches in nature.

Monet painting of Zandaam

Landscapes, as an independent subject of paintings, were quite rare before that time. They would be a nice addition, a background on the picture. But rarely the main theme.

Since they were painting outside, Impressionists started noticing how the light and colours changed throughout the day. The water of the river or the grass on a meadow would have different shades in the morning, around noon and later in the afternoon. They started focusing on that light and its reflections on their paintings.

Impressionist’s subjects

Claude Monet painting

On most Impressionists paintings at Musée d’Orsay, you can see landscapes and the modern society of that time. As a group, they shared the same ideas about art.

But, each Impressionist painter could develop their own style and choose whichever subject they wanted. That’s why you’ll notice that Claude Monet was focusing on landscapes and nature. Edgar Degas mostly painted dancers and scenes from cafes and restaurants. Pierre-Auguste Renoir loved painting nudes and portraits, while Paul Cézanne mostly created still lives.

Today, Impressionism is considered to be the first modern style. The reason for it lies in a few scientific discoveries and social developments that made that possible.

1/ The tube paint

One of the reasons painters could go outside and paint in the open air was the invention of tube paint. It was easy for Impressionist painters to bring their painting material with them and paint outside their studios. Many of them were using pure colours straight from the tube, so they could paint quickly. And capture all the changes in light throughout the day.

2/ Invention of the camera

The development of photography made the progress of Impressionism possible. Once the camera was invented, there was no need for realism in art anymore. It was hard to compete with the authenticity of the camera. That’s why painters started to focus on colours, light and reflections in their paintings more.

3/ Middle class & outdoor leisure activities

In the second half of the 19th century, the middle class become a more significant part of French society. They made outdoor leisure activities more popular. And Impressionist painters found a perfect subject for their paintings in them.

Impressionist paintings at Orsay

Claude Monet at Musée d’Orsay

The Impressionist collection at Musée d’Orsay is also a place to see many paintings by, probably the most famous among them, Claude Monet. In his paintings, he mainly focused on water and clouds. He managed to capture so well the Impressionist ideas in them.

Monet was always painting outside very quickly, leaving brushstrokes visible on his paintings. Since he was using pure colours, his paintings are vivid and bright. To capture the southern light, Monet, in his own words, dreamed about:

A palette of diamonds and precious stones.

The Musée d'Orsay invites art and virtual reality enthusiasts to a unique experience, entitled Un soir avec les impressionnistes - Paris 1874 , from March 26 to August 11, 2024. This VR experience , imagined in co-production with Gédéon programmes , Emissive and the museum and held as part of the exhibition Paris 1874, inventing Impressionism , transports you to Paris on April 15, 1874, to witness the inauguration of the first Impressionist exhibition . Taking you on a journey to photographer Nadar 's former studio on Boulevard des Capucines , this adventure lets you relive a key moment in art history, surrounded by the works and key figures of the period.

  • Musée d'Orsay: booking, prices, free admission, tips and current exhibitions
  • Paris 1874, inventing Impressionism: our photos from the Musée d'Orsay's major exhibition
  • Games and immersive experiences in Paris museums and monuments

Donning a state-of-the-art virtual reality headset, visitors are immersed in the captivating atmosphere of 19th-century Paris. They stroll along Boulevard des Capucines and enter Nadar's studio , where they meet renowned artists such as Claude Monet , Auguste Renoir , Berthe Morisot , Paul Cézanne , Camille Pissaro and Edgar Degas . This tour offers a spectacular immersion, where you discover the complex links between these artists, their works, and the birth and evolution of Impressionism.

Paris 1874, inventer l'impressionnisme : l'exposition événement du musée d'Orsay - IMG 5570

Un soir avec les impressionnistes - Paris 1874 is based on exhaustive research, using cadastres, architectural plans, aerial photographs and various archives to faithfully reproduce Nadar 's studio and the first Impressionist exhibition. The experience is open to everyone aged 11 and over, with a restriction for children under 8. However, it is not recommended for people prone to epileptic seizures, migraines, or with balance or vision problems.

Our review of the VR experience "An evening with the Impressionists": On the opening day of the Paris 1874, Inventing Impressionism exhibition on March 25, we were offered a most curious museum experience: a virtual reality "adventure" taking you back in time to 1874, to meet renowned artists... We jump at the chance. For your information, the VR experience is available in addition to the exhibition ticket, and is located at the back of the museum's main gallery, after the Paris 1874 exhibition. Once you've arrived, you put your belongings in a locker (compulsory), introduce yourself at the reception desk, you're given a free-roaming VR headset (no computer on your back and no cable, for absolute freedom of movement), you're given a few instructions... And off you go! These instructions are repeated at the start of the experience, allowing you to familiarize yourself with the space and movements. It's very well done and very fluid, if you've ever experienced virtual reality. But if you've never done it before, don't worry: the explanations are very clear, ensuring your safety and comfort. Then the experience begins... We find ourselves propelled along Boulevard des Capucines , in the company of Rose , our guide to the experience. The chatty young woman is a model for painters! And very quickly, after a tour of the Opéra Garnier to set the scene and a visit to Nadar (the photographer), we get right to the heart of the matter... And so, we visit this exhibition in the company of the artists: Renoir, Degas, Monet, Cézanne, Berthe Morizot ... All of them take us on a tour of their works, explaining them as a tour guide or art historian would. In terms of immersion, it's hard to beat it! Graphically speaking, this is VR, so don't expect anything too advanced (the NPCs, with the exception of the experience's protagonists, have no faces, for example, which can be a little unsettling). But space is so immense, both in real and virtual reality ... You can imagine the titanic work that went into creating this universe, and it's particularly impressive. Movements are also ultra-smooth, with Rose often inviting us to follow her (don't hesitate, by the way). Special mention should be made of the sequence in Bougival , as well as in Le Havre with Monet , with backgrounds (trees, sky, clouds, sun) that echo the artistic codes of the Impressionists (yes, the creators of the experience, if you're reading us, we've noticed...), making the whole thing very beautiful and poetic. A very special experience, very pretty and ideal for easily learning and understanding everything about the history of the Impressionists and this exhibition. Don't miss it!

A rare opportunity to walk alongside the giants of Impressionism and experience a pivotal moment in artistic history. The Musée d'Orsay awaits you for this unique virtual reality adventure, which promises to enrich your understanding and appreciation of Impressionist art. All you have to do is book!

Visiting the Musée d’Orsay: What We’ll Cover

The Musée d’Orsay is the home of impressionism and Paris’s second-largest museum. With 3.6 million visitors in 2019, the museum houses a collection of works by the likes of Renoir, Manet, Van Gogh, and Monet, among others.

The museum has an interesting history and is an important monument in itself. In this guide on how to visit Musée d’Orsay, here’s what we’ll cover:

Musée d’Orsay Opening Hours and Tickets

Before you plan anything else, you need to know the Musée d’Orsay opening hours. The museum is open most days of the year from 9:30 am to 6 pm (last admission at 5 pm), except on Mondays when it is closed.

The museum also has a late opening on Thursdays where the museum stays open until 9:45 pm (last admission at 9 pm). Keep in mind that the Musée d’Orsay is closed on May 1 and December 25.

Opening Hours:

  • Tuesday to Sunday from 9:30 am to 6 pm (last admission at 5 pm); Closed on Mondays

Pro Tip:  The museum will be most crowded on Tuesdays and Sundays, so avoid these two days if possible. If you must go on these two days, then I recommend going around lunchtime (12 pm) to avoid the majority of the crowds.

We highly recommend purchasing your ticket in advance online. Currently, the museum averages the waiting time at the main entrance for visitors without tickets at around 50 minutes. It could be much longer in the summer months.

  • Adult ticket: €16 (online), €14 (at the museum)

  • Reduced price: €13 (online), €11 (at the museum) for adults accompanying someone under 18 years old)

How Long To Spend at the Musée d’Orsay

Interior view of the levels of the Musee d'Orsay in Paris

Short Answer: 2 hours

Like any museum, the amount of time you really need is a personal choice with the most important factor being how much you like the work. The museum is quite big, so my recommendation would be a two-hour visit. More than two hours without a break and you might go into art overload.

The Musée d’Orsay houses artwork on three different floors, so I’ll go through each one of them and explain what you will see, so you can decide for yourself which floors you want to dedicate the most time to.

Ground floor

In the right-hand side galleries, you’ll find artists such as Ingres, Delacroix, Moreau, and the early works of Edgar Degas, who would later become an important figure in impressionist painting. 

In the left-hand side galleries, you’ll find artwork based on naturalism, realism, and pre-impressionism. Artists in this gallery include Courbet, Corot, Millet, and Manet. The masterpieces you’ll see are Millet’s  The Angelus  (1857-1859) and Manet’s infamous  Le dejeuner sur l’herbe  (Lunch on the Grass), which depicts a nude woman picnicking with two clothed men.

First floor or middle level

The main artists on this level are non-French artists such as Klimt and Munch. As for French artists on this level, you can see works by Maurice Denis, Ker-Xavier Roussel, and Pierre Bonnard. This level holds an important collection of pastels, decorative objects, and late 19th-century paintings.

Third floor

Major artists you can find here are Paul Gaugin, Georges Seurat, Paul Signac, and Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. As you enter this floor, you’ll notice the experimentation of new methods, which will eventually lead to impressionism. There is a small gallery dedicated to small format painting.

Fourth floor

I would say that this is the floor with the most famous paintings and probably the reason why most people come to visit this museum. The artists on this floor are the kings of Impressionism as we know it today: Edgar Degas, Claude Monet, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Alfred Sisley, Camille Pissarro, and Gustave Caillebotte.

There are entire galleries dedicated to Monet and Renoir after 1880. On the same floor, there’s the Gachet Collection where you will find the amazing paintings of Van Gogh and Paul Cezanne. You’ll also find sculptures here by Edgar Degas.

Fifth floor

This last floor, if you have any energy left, is dedicated to sculpture from the 19th century and, of course, an entire wing has been dedicated to France’s most illustrious sculptor, Auguste Rodin.

History of the Musée d’Orsay

Interior view of the length of the Musee d'Orsay in Paris

The Train Station

The current Musée d’Orsay was previously a train station (called a Gare in French) and hotel, which was built in just 2 years and inaugurated in time for the Worlds Fair on July 14th, 1900. In order to ensure that such a massive structure didn’t look out of place, the particular stone chosen came from the Charente and Poitou regions.

The amenities were extremely modern for the time with ramps and lifts for luggage, elevators for the passengers, a reception area on the ground floor, electric traction, and 16 underground rail tracks.

It immediately became the head of the Southwestern French railroad network. The hotel became a popular venue for various gatherings of associations and political parties.

During the War

By 1939, the Gare d’Orsay was limited to traveling to the suburbs of Paris since its platforms were too short for the more modern and longer trains that were being built.

As World War II began, the train station was used as a mailing center to send packages to prisoners of war and was also the final destination point for those prisoners returning after the liberation of the war.

The hotel finally closed its doors on January 1st, 1973. Among the many occasions and events that took place at the hotel, one of the most famous was when General De Gaulle announced his return to power in the ballroom.

The Birth of a Museum

At this point, the train station needed a new reason for being. There were plans to demolish the area and build a huge hotel on the spot, but the Direction des Musées de France had decided that the area would be better suited to a museum that could represent artwork from the second half of the 19th century and was made official on October 20th, 1977.

On December 1st, 1986 then-president François Mitterand inaugurated the museum and it opened its doors to the public on December 9th of the same year. The collections were brought in from three main sources:

  • Louvre Museum: The works of artists born after 1820 or coming to prominence during the Second Republic.
  • Musée du Jeu de Paume: Since 1947, this museum had been dedicated to the works of Impressionism.
  • National Museum of Modern Art: When moving over to the Centre Georges Pompidou, it only kept artwork from artists born after 1870.

Places To Eat Inside and Nearby

Café Campana : €€ | Beautiful Setting —The Musée d’Orsay has one restaurant inside the museum itself, called Café Campana. The cafe, designed by the Brazilian Campana brothers, is a tribute to Art Nouveau and is meant to transport you into a dreamlike aquatic environment.

The menu is casual with a cafeteria-style vibe, so you’ll get your meal fast. The café prides itself on seasonal, fresh ingredients and also has large salads and ice cream. It’s a lovely place to take a break and refuel before continuing your museum visit.

Musée d’Orsay, Paris Paris, France

The history of the museum, of its building is quite unusual. In the centre of Paris on the banks of the Seine, opposite the Tuileries Gardens, the museum was installed in the former Orsay railway station, built for the Universal Exhibition of 1900. So the building itself could be seen as the first "work of art" in the Musee d'Orsay, which displays collections of art from the period 1848 to 1914.

Open from 9.30am to 6pm daily, except Mondays Late night on Thursdays until 9.45pm Last tickets sold at 5pm (9pm Thursdays), museum cleared at 5.30pm (9.15pm Thursdays) Closed on Mondays, on 1 January, 1 May and 25 December

These 12 Famous Museums Offer Virtual Tours You Can Take on Your Couch

Experience the best museums — from London to Seoul — from the comfort of your own home.

musee d'orsay tour virtuel

While there's nothing like setting foot inside an iconic museum and laying eyes on a world-famous sculpture created by a renowned artist centuries ago, it's not always possible to hop on a plane to New York City , Paris , or Florence to tour the gallery halls in person.

But there is a way to get a little culture and education while you're at home, gaining inspiration and intel for future trips as well. Google Arts & Culture has teamed up with more than 1,200 museums and galleries around the world to bring anyone and everyone virtual tours and online exhibits of some of the most famous museums around the world.

You get to "go to the museum" and never have to leave your couch.

Google Arts & Culture's collection includes The British Museum in London, the Van Gogh Museum in Amsterdam, the Guggenheim in New York City, and literally hundreds more places where you can gain knowledge about art, history, and science.

Take a look at just some of Google's top museums that are offering online tours and exhibits. And if you're seeking more thoughtful inspiration from the comfort of your own home, museums around the world are sharing their most zen art on social media . Or, for a dose of nature, you can go "outside" with incredible virtual tours of some of America's best national parks .

The British Museum, London

This iconic museum located in the heart of London allows virtual visitors to tour the Great Court and discover the ancient Rosetta Stone and Egyptian mummies.

This famous American art museum features two online exhibits through Google.

Musée d’Orsay, Paris

The J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles

Uffizi Gallery, Florence

This less well-known gallery houses the art collection of one of Florence's most famous families, the de' Medicis. The building was designed by Giorgio Vasari in 1560 specifically for Cosimo I de' Medici, but anyone can wander its halls from anywhere in the world .

MASP, São Paulo

The Museu de Arte de São Paulo is a nonprofit and Brazil's first modern museum. Artworks placed on clear, raised frames make it seem like they're hovering in midair. Take a virtual tour to experience the wondrous display for yourself.

National Museum of Anthropology, Mexico City

Built in 1964, this museum is dedicated to the archaeology and history of Mexico's pre-Hispanic heritage. There are 22 exhibit rooms filled with ancient artifacts, including some from the Maya civilization.

Not all popular art museums and galleries are included in Google Arts & Culture's collection, but some have taken it upon themselves to offer online visits. For example, the Louvre offers virtual tours on its website .

To see more of Google Arts & Culture's collection of museums, visit its website . There are thousands of museum Street Views on Google as well. Google Arts & Culture also has an online experience for exploring famous historic and cultural heritage sites .

L’incroyable visite virtuelle du musée d’Orsay

musee d'orsay tour virtuel

Avec la pandémie, nous avons dû revoir nos habitudes et beaucoup ont été privés des petits plaisirs tels que celui de visiter des lieux et des villes. Mais heureusement pour les amateurs de culture et d’histoire, certaines attractions incroyables ne demandent qu’à être découvertes à distance. C’est le cas du Musée d’Orsay à Paris qui propose une visite virtuelle passionnante des œuvres d’art majeures et des trésors culturels français. Découvrons ensemble ce que nous réserve l’incroyable visite virtuelle du musée ! Les professionnels sont aujourd’hui en mesure de nous offrir des expériences VR de qualité et mettent en œuvre les meilleurs moyens à leur disposition.

Qu’est-ce que le Musée d’Orsay?  

Le Musée d’Orsay est un grand musée situé à Paris, sur les rives de la Seine. Il abrite l’une des plus importantes collections d’œuvres d’art en Europe . Il est implanté dans l’ancienne gare du même nom, dont la construction remonte à la fin du XIXe siècle. Montée sur des voies ferrées, l’architecture évoque alors le mouvement et les progrès techniques – l’emblème de l’âge industriel du siècle.

 Il propose aux visiteurs une collection composée d’œuvres couvrant toute la période allant de 1848 à 1914 (La Belle Epoque) : environ 5000 peintures et sculptures , 150 000 objets d’art décoratif et design . La collection renferme des œuvres majestueuses signées par des artistes Français célèbres tels que Claude Monet, Auguste Renoir, Vincent Van Gogh, Edgar Degas et Alfred Sisley.

Quels sont les avantages à visiter virtuellement le musée ?  

La Visite Virtuelle du Musée d’Orsay propose aux visiteurs une incroyable expérience immersive depuis leur propre domicile. Cette visite permet aux participants de parcourir toutes les galeries du musée, sans aucun temps d’attente et sans même quitter la maison ou son bureau. 

De plus, la visite virtuelle est entièrement gratuite. Ce type de visite comporte différents avantages dont celui qui permet aux participants de choisir leurs propres moyens de déplacement à travers le Musée. 

Les participants peuvent se déplacer à leur rythme, choisir les oeuvres qu’ils veulent visiter , passer autant de temps qu’ils veulent avec chaque œuvre.

musee d'orsay tour virtuel

Comment puis-je accéder à la Visite Virtuelle du Musée d’Orsay?  

Il fut un temps où il était facile de trouver une visite du musée sur le site officiel. Récemment, nous avons constaté que la tâche est devenue beaucoup plus compliquée. Pour répondre à la question, si vous souhaitez effectuer une visite pour explorer les murs de cet édifice magnifique, nous vous conseillons de consulter des plateformes telles que Google Arts and Culture .

Avec l’évolution de la technologie, il est désormais possible de visiter virtuellement des musées à travers diverses plateformes en ligne . Ces dernières permettent aux utilisateurs de naviguer dans les salles d’exposition, de zoomer sur les œuvres d’art pour en apprécier les détails et même de suivre un tour virtuel guidé. Cependant, il est important de mentionner que cela ne peut pas remplacer totalement l’expérience de se rendre au musée en personne.

Il y a quelque chose de spécial à se rendre au musée en personne. Cela permet de ressentir l’ambiance de l’endroit , de voir les œuvres d’art à leur taille réelle et d’avoir accès aux explications des guides expérimentés. Les musées organisent également souvent des expositions temporaires et des événements en direct qui ne peuvent pas être vus en ligne.

Malgré cela, les plateformes en ligne proposent un moyen pratique et accessible de découvrir des œuvres d’art et des musées du monde entier , même si vous ne pouvez pas vous rendre sur place. Il est donc essentiel de considérer les deux options.

30 May 2024

Tickets are now on sale for The Griffin Catalyst Exhibition: Monet and London. Views of the Thames (27 Sep 2024 – 19 Jan 2025) at The Courtauld Gallery.

Claude Monet (1840-1926) is world renowned as the leading figure of French Impressionism, the movement that changed the course of modern art. Less known is the fact that some of Monet’s most remarkable Impressionist paintings were made not in France but in London. They depict extraordinary views of the Thames as it had never been seen before, full of evocative atmosphere, mysterious light and radiant colour.

Begun during three stays in the capital between 1899 and 1901, the series – depicting Charing Cross Bridge, Waterloo Bridge and the Houses of Parliament – was unveiled in Paris in 1904. Monet fervently wanted to show them in London itself the following year, but plans fell through. To this day, they have never been the subject of a UK exhibition.

This exhibition will realise Monet’s unfulfilled ambition of showing this extraordinary group of paintings in London, and just 300 metres from the Savoy Hotel where most were painted. By presenting the paintings Monet himself selected for his public in Paris and London, it will provide visitors with the unique experience of seeing the show Monet curated and the works he felt best represented his ambitious artistic enterprise – brought together for the first time 120 years after their inaugural exhibition.

The Griffin Catalyst Exhibition: Monet and London. Views of the Thames 27 Sep 2024 – 19 Jan 2025 Denise Coates Exhibition Galleries

Tickets include entry to the permanent collection and displays. Friends go free .

The exhibition’s lead sponsor is Griffin Catalyst, the civic engagement initiative of Citadel Founder and CEO Kenneth C. Griffin. The exhibition is supported by the Huo Family Foundation.

Réalité virtuelle - La Palette de Van Gogh

Une expérience inédite interactive et immersive.

musee d'orsay tour virtuel

  • Cette activité est proposée de 9h40 à 17h20 (21h le jeudi) pendant toute la durée de l'exposition «  Van Gogh à Auvers-sur-Oise  ». La durée de l'expérience immersive est d'environ 10 minutes. 

Muni d'un casque de réalité virtuelle, vous voilà plongé dans le salon de la maison du docteur Gachet à Auvers-sur-Oise, et vous découvrez le portrait de la fille du docteur Gachet, Marguerite, peint par Van Gogh. Sur la table est posée une palette maculée de peinture. Commence alors le récit de Marguerite Gachet et votre plongée au cœur même de la palette, devenue paysage immersif. À travers les souvenirs de Marguerite, vous découvrez de manière interactive et animée quatre tableaux majeurs de Van Gogh de la période d’Auvers-sur-Oise.

Monsieur Vincent épuisait un nombre invraisemblable de tubes, du rouge, du vert, du bleu de Prusse. Il se plaignait beaucoup, il disait souvent qu’il n’en avait jamais assez.

Un univers multisensoriel

La palette : pour recréer en 3D la palette de Van Gogh il s'agissait de retrouver la matérialité de la peinture sculptée par les coups de pinceaux ainsi que toutes les minuscules variations des couleurs grâce à l’utilisation d’un logiciel de photogrammétrie.

Le guide : dans cet univers le guide est Le Martin-pêcheur peint par Van Gogh, tableau qui se trouve aujourd'hui au musée Van Gogh d'Amsterdam. Son vol indique, à chaque fois, la zone de la palette dans laquelle l'utilisateur est téléporté et des objets avec lesquels il est invité à interagir.

Interagir avec la matière : les interactions proposées - tout au long de l'expérience - permettent de manipuler la matière picturale de Van Gogh pour comprendre sa façon de travailler. Tout le corps de l'utilisateur est engagé dans ce face-à-face avec la peinture. Trois types d'interactions ont été développés : la distorsion, les couleurs, les coups des pinceaux.

La musique : les notes au piano, sont des transcriptions de Liszt des opéras de Wagner, dont Vincent van Gogh était un admirateur. Les mélodies ont été retravaillées avec des effets de ralentissement ou d’accélération qui suggèrent la perte de repères et le temps suspendu pendant que l'artiste peignait ses œuvres.

Infos & Réservation

La réservation en ligne est fortement recommandée.

Billet combiné :

En plus du billet pour l’expérience en réalité virtuelle La palette de Van Gogh , la réservation en ligne comprend également l’accès à l’exposition Van Gogh à Auvers-sur-Oise . Ce billet combiné est coupe-file : à la sortie de l’expérience en réalité virtuelle, vous pourrez accéder directement à l’exposition.

Créneaux de fin de journée :

Des billets non-combinés avec l’exposition sont disponibles uniquement à la vente sur place en fin de journée, au tarif unique de 6 €. Profitez de l’expérience à 17h et 17h20 ou à 20h40 et 21h les soirs de nocturne, en réservant et en payant directement sur place auprès du personnel d’accueil de l’expérience. Le règlement se fait par carte bancaire, dans la limite des places disponibles.
