Musee d'Orsay




We actually went here on Wednesday. This museum houses art from the mid-19th century thru the mid-20th century. Heavy on impressionism and post-impressionism. The Louvre does not really get to this period, so if you are interested in Monet, Van Gogh, Degas, and Renoir, this is the museum for you.

Even if that art doesn't interest you -- the interior of the building is amazing. It is an old train station -- and is a site itself.
