The Petit Palais: a magnificent building

  • The Petit Palais is the Museum of Fine Arts of the City of Paris which brings together the collections of painting and sculpture from antiquity to the 1920s
  • This museum exhibits works by major artists such as Ingres, Ingres, Géricault, Delacroix, Cézanne, Bonnard and Maillol… Nevertheless, in our opinion, the permanent collection will be of particular interest to art lovers
  • The building , which dates from the 1900 Universal Exhibition , and its interior patio are definitely worth a visit. It has a lot of charm!
  • The Petit Palais regularly organises temporary exhibitions. These are paid for and are of high quality

The café-restaurant of the Petit Palais is a very pleasant place

  • The Petit Palais café-restaurant, located in its inner courtyard , is a very pleasant place for a lunch break or snack
  • It is a self-service café that serves very simple and very good dishes (pies, quiches, salads, cakes…)
  • It is a place that we particularly recommend on sunny days to enjoy the tables placed under the rotunda of the interior patio.
  • You can have lunch or a snack by a pool lined with mosaics, under romantic colonnades and in the middle of exotic vegetation… It’s a place that has a lot of charm!
  • Access to the café is free, you can go there without visiting the museum
