Opened in 1986 in the building of the former Orsay station, one of the last jewels of 19th-century steel architecture, the museum, dedicated to art between 1848 and 1914, has succeeded over the decades in renewing its face.

À propos du lieu

Établissement public du musée d’Orsay et du musée de l’Orangerie – Valéry Giscard d’Estaing

The Musée d'Orsay presents the art of the few decades between 1848 and 1914\. Painting, sculpture, photography, decorative arts and graphic arts: all the arts of the second half of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries took place in the former station of Orsay, a building built for the Universal Exhibition of 1900\. Thus, the building is in a way the first "work" of the museum’s collections.
