How much does the Musée Marmottan Monet cost?

Why I don’t list any prices
The museum occasionally updates its pricing, and any figure mentioned here could eventually become outdated. I’d rather give you a sense of scale and what it gets you. The scale: a simple lunch on rue de Passy. What it gets you: the world’s largest Monet collection, over a hundred works, including Impression, soleil levant, in a private mansion where you’ll often find yourself alone in front of the large formats in the underground gallery. For what you see, it’s one of the best-value tickets in Paris.
A private museum, so slightly pricier
The Marmottan belongs to the Académie des Beaux-Arts. It’s not a national museum, which explains two things visitors often discover too late. First, the full price is a step above that of the Orsay or the Orangerie. Second, none of the national museum policies apply: there’s no free first Sunday, and the Paris Museum Pass is not accepted at the desk. I regularly see people pull out their pass, the attendant shake their head, and the ticket still having to be paid for. Plan ahead to avoid frustration.
Who gets in for free, who pays less
Children under seven enter free of charge. Residents of the EEA under eighteen also benefit from free entry with an ID proving their age and residency. A reduced rate is available for several situations, and individuals with disabilities may receive a reduced rate or free entry depending on the case&nbps;: ask at the reception, as conditions are more flexible than you might think. Details on free admissions can be found on the page is the museum free.
What the ticket includes
Everything on display on the day of your visit. The permanent collection, of course, as well as the temporary exhibition—we host two or three a year. There’s no extra charge for the exhibition, which isn’t always the case elsewhere. The cloakroom is at the entrance. The audio guide, however, is rented separately at the reception.

What GetYourGuide products add
There is no standalone Marmottan ticket on GetYourGuide. What you can book there is the rest of the Monet day. The Marmottan + Giverny day trip includes museum entry, small-group transport to Giverny, and lunch: it costs several times the price of the museum ticket, and what you're paying for is the vehicle and the day, not the entry. The private tour adds an art historian guide just for you. The Orangerie and Orsay tickets are timed-entry passes for other museums, useful if you're continuing in the afternoon. For Marmottan alone, save your money for the door.
If budget matters, come on Thursday evening: the price doesn’t change, but you’ll have the Monet room almost to yourself, and that’s what makes the ticket worthwhile. On Mondays, however, the museum is closed—see the opening hours.
Book the day trip that includes the museum
The Marmottan + Giverny day trip is the only product that includes museum entry. It leaves from the museum in the morning and returns to Paris in the late afternoon.
