    Pass by
    You are free to take your time exploring the Musée de l'Orangerie if you have a reserved access entrance ticket. Say goodbye to waiting in line for hours on end and for ticket windows to open with your reserved ticket. Instead of waiting for big group tours to move in unison, explore the museum at your own pace to make the most of your time taking in the world-class artwork within. View the additional pieces in the museum by, among others, Paul Cézanne, Henri Matisse, Amedeo Modigliani, Pablo Picasso, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Henri Rousseau, Alfred Sisley, Chaim Soutine, and Maurice Utrillo. The museum is best known for housing eight of Claude Monet's Water Lilies canvases permanently. The two parts of the collection—the Water Lilies and the École de Paris (School of Paris)—feel more connected now because of the early 20th-century reorganization of the Musée de l'Orangerie. Savor the grace, flow, education, and stimulation of the circuit.
