Paris..best Museum site.

We will be in Paris on a Sun, Mon, and Tues. I would like to figure out the hours and which museums are closed on these days.I have heard that many are closed on mon. Can you recommend a good site for this? Is Versailles open on Monday?



Thanks!

I would suggest that you consult a guide book on Paris, which will also enable you to effectively plan your days there.

If you prefer to get info online, the tourist information website is http://en.parisinfo.com/ Popular museums also generally have English language pages on their websites so it%26#39;s easy to google them and check the up to date information.

here is a brief run down:it looks like someone gave you the web sites



Rodin- see in nice weather to appreciate the gardens



Orsay- closed Mondays open late (and therefore less crowded Thursday night) start on the fifth floor for the major Impressionist%26#39;s works



Louvre- closed Tuesdays open late Wednesday and Friday



Orangerie- relatively small open late Fridays closed Tuesdays



Musee Carnavalet- free and apparently very interesting displays etc. Paris history



Picasso- closed Tuesdays



Sacre Coeur- open very late great views



Notre Dame- arrive eraly to ascend the towers see the web site for the mass schedule



Saint Chappelle- try to see stained glass in the daylight pass does not bypass line for security purposes



Versailles- great to have the pass- check the fountain schedule



This is not yet first hand knowledge- just information from research

Try the museum pass website. You can click on the museums you%26#39;re interested and find more specific information. Versailles is closed on Mondays.
