Accessibility at the Musée Marmottan Monet
Inside the museum
It's a private mansion, and the museum has ensured it's easy to get around: the Empire ground floor and the underground Monet room—that is, the main part of the visit—are wheelchair accessible. The first floor, featuring Berthe Morisot, is reachable via a stairlift; ask at the reception, and a staff member will assist you. Wheelchairs are available to borrow at the reception for those who have difficulty walking but don’t have their own. The route is detailed on what to see at the Marmottan.
Getting here
Disabled parking spaces are available outside the museum on Louis-Boilly street. From La Muette metro station, the route through the Ranelagh garden takes five minutes. Details are on getting here by metro. Reduced rates or free admission are granted at the reception upon presentation of valid proof; the exact rules depend on individual situations, and the staff are familiar with them.
Nearby visits
The Marmottan + Giverny full-day tour is done by vehicle for four people, and the operator advises against it for wheelchair users, those with back problems, and visitors over 75. The half-day coach trip to Giverny is also not wheelchair accessible. However, tickets for the Orangerie and Orsay museums are wheelchair accessible, as are the museums themselves. The options are listed on all visits.
Come at opening time or on Thursday evenings: the stairlift and reception are more available when the museum is quiet, and the Monet room can be explored in a wheelchair without waiting for others to move aside.
