Do I need to print my ticket?

No — a mobile ticket on your phone is accepted at the entrance. Printing is optional.

Is entry really free on the first Sunday of the month?

Yes. The museum opens free of charge to all visitors on the first Sunday of each month. You will still need to reserve a timed slot in advance.

Can I bring a large bag or suitcase?

No. Oversized bags and suitcases are not permitted inside the museum, and there are no lockers available. Plan to travel light or leave luggage at your accommodation.

What time should I arrive?

Last admission is 45 minutes before closing, so allow yourself enough time to see the collection properly. Arriving at your booked slot time is recommended.

Visitors under 18, EU residents under 26, and French public primary and secondary school teachers all enter free with valid ID.

Is the museum wheelchair accessible?

The Musée de l'Orangerie is a historic building; accessibility provisions are in place, but we recommend checking directly with the museum for the most current information on lifts and facilities.
