Gustave Moreau Museum

Gustave Moreau's Paris home converted by the artist himself into a museum, containing over 14,000 of his mythological works. Today it stands as one of Paris's most compelling cultural sites, offering an intimate encounter with Gustave Moreau's work and life.

Among the highlights is the extraordinary collection, which gives visitors a vivid sense of Gustave Moreau's work and life. The influence of Symbolism is evident throughout. The curators have done exceptional work in bringing the history of the place to life.

The experience of visiting is made all the more memorable by the urban surroundings. Knowledgeable guides are on hand to provide context, and the artist home is well set up for both independent exploration and guided tours. A visit here is one that tends to linger in the memory.
