Musée d'Orsay
The Musée d'Orsay is a world-famous art museum in Paris, housed in a stunning former Beaux-Arts railway station (the Gare d'Orsay) built in 1900. It's best known for its extraordinary collection of Impressionist and Post-Impressionist masterpieces, featuring artists like Monet, Van Gogh, Renoir, Degas, and Cézanne. The building itself is a work of art, with its giant glass roof and ornate gilded clock offering gorgeous natural light and views. It sits right on the Left Bank of the Seine, across from the Louvre and the Tuileries Garden. Many consider it the perfect complement to the Louvre—smaller, more focused, and covering art from roughly 1848 to 1914.

Monnaie de Paris
Founded in 1864, not only is Monnaie de Paris France's longest standing institution, but it is also the oldest enterprise in the world. Today, the mint strikes circulation coins for France, as well as beautiful gold and silver commemorative coin programs that are each intricately designed works of art. The mint is also home to a museum that hosts exhibitions, tours and workshops as well as the Guy Savoy Restaurant.
