Join this is a self-guided audio tour of the Orangerie Museum, a gallery of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist paintings.

Experience the larger-than-life Water Lilies by Monet are the main attraction, but they are far from the only reason to visit. Situated in an old greenhouse in the heart of Paris, this museum is also notable for having the Walter Guillaume collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist art.

Hear the in-app audio tour explaining how Impressionism was born and how Monet's painting technique evolved over time. You will gain insights on the genesis of the Water Lily collection, Monet's creative vision, and how the Orangerie was adapted to accommodate the paintings.

Discover that the Orangerie building, once a greenhouse, was part of a large palace, a twin to the Louvre, and more.

Happy to see Monets work in place here but need better crowd control. Very very loud and everywhere people were doing cell phone photo or video shoots. Not just a quick photo but blocking the paintings for extensive time with multiple doing same at same time. No chance of contemplating paintings

The fact that we can get so close to these brilliant pieces, not only to appreciate the presentation but to see the genius of creation, the seemingly random brush strokes that evoke such movement and emotion is a testimony to this this museum in allowing the public such a profound experience.

Everything very smooth. Excellent audio tour. Beautiful museum.

Es un museo dinámico con obras extraordinarias y de gran formato, Monet, Picazo, André Derian, Philippe Cognée, Edvard Munch entre otros muchos más y todas las obras únicas en una época floreciente para las artes y el impresionismo y realismo.

I was disappointed to discover in the small print that I had actually been sold tickets from a third party - who proved to be incredibly difficult to deal with. Ultimately the third party were unable to fulfil my order and we had to negotiate another time to attend the museum.
