Musée Marmottan Monet

In Paris's 16th arrondissement, the Musée Marmottan Monet occupies a historic mansion and holds the world's largest collection of works by Claude Monet. The building, originally a hunting lodge, was converted into an elegant town house in the 19th century and today houses art from the Napoleonic era as well as Impressionist masterpieces. Alongside the famous painting "Impression, soleil levant," which gave the art movement its name, the galleries display numerous works by Manet, Degas, Renoir, and Morisot. You'll find an exceptional concentration of Impressionism in an elegant historic setting near the Bois de Boulogne.
