Impressionist treasures at Orsay Museum
The building
Step inside a former grand train station (Gare d'Orsay, 1898-1900) and be amazed. Today, the Orsay Museum features a vast, light-filled hall featuring vaulted ceilings, intricate metalwork, and large windows that offer glimpses of the Seine, all while showcasing Impressionist and Post-Impressionist artworks.
The Orsay clocks
Known as the “Big Ben of Paris”, the Orsay clocks have marked the time since the 1900s. Two large clocks, with steel and glass frames, were installed in the towers overlooking the Seine, guiding passengers to their trains. Even after the station’s transformation into a museum, these clocks remained.
One clock, now part of Café Campana, offers a stunning view over the Seine River, while a grand Belle Époque clock graces the Great Hall.
The collection
Although the Orsay station couldn’t accommodate longer, modern trains, its transformation allowed it to house an impressive collection of 6,000 works of French art, including 3,000 Impressionist and Post-Impressionist masterpieces.
Explore iconic works like Monet’s Poppies, Van Gogh’s Starry Night, and Rodin’s The Age of Bronze. Other notable pieces include Cézanne’s Apples and Oranges, Van Gogh’s Bedroom in Arles, and Monet’s Water Lilies.

The Musée de l’Orangerie is a truly beautiful and well-maintained place. The famous Water Lilies by Claude Monet are absolutely breathtaking and worth seeing in person.

The queue moved relatively quickly and the masterpieces inside were well worth the wait! Being immersed in Monet's water lilies was peaceful and transformative and moving through the myriad Cezanne, Renoir and large Rousseau exhibits were thrilling and beyond compare!

Everything was great—the punctuality, the communication. I think they really took care of every detail. Honestly, I think coming to Paris and being able to buy tickets so easily is a huge plus because there are so many people. I think the timing was perfect, and it made it much easier to see the Mona Lisa without having to deal with such huge crowds. I highly recommend it.

Headout made our visit to Musée d’Orsay truly memorable. The process was effortless – booked online in minutes, received the ticket right away, and walked straight in at 11:00 without any waiting. The collection is stunning – standing under that iconic clock with sunlight streaming in was a moment I’ll never forget. Seeing the real paintings of Monet, Van Gogh and Degas felt almost unreal. A perfect, joyful experience for me and my teenager. Thank you so much!
