Le Musée D'Orsay

This wonderful museum was originally a railway station opened for the exposition of 1900. By 1939 it had become obsolete. In the early seventies it was to be demolished but better heads prevailed and it was converted into a superb exhibition space. It has the premiere impressionistic collection in Paris or anywhere. I always vist it when I go to Paris. Not to be missed.
