The Paris Museum Pass
Paris Museum Pass helps youi save money on multiple attractions.

With the Paris Museum Pass you get unlimited visits to more than 60 museums in and around Paris including the Louvre, and see places like Notre Dame Cathedral and the Pompidou Centre.

The discounted Paris Museum Pass has to be used on consecutive days, so you cannot use a 2-day pass on Monday and Wednesday for example.

The day of your visit should be thought through as even the big museums like the Louvre and Orsay Museum are closed one day a week, and different museums close on different days.

For the mainstream visitor to Paris the main blockbuster museums and monuments listed on the Paris Museum Pass that catch the eye include the Louvre, Orsay Museum, Army Museum (Tomb of Napoleon), Science Museum, Notre Dame, Pantheon, Pompidou Centre and Rodin Museum in Paris.

Around Paris there are many châteaux, but it is Versailles that is the feature act for most visitors. There are around 60 monuments and museums in total included under the Paris Museum Pass.

Will I save money with Paris Museum Pass?

You are not going to save any money if you only are going to visit a couple of the museums featured. The longer the duration of the pass the better value the pass becomes.

With a 2 day pass, visiting the Louvre, Orsay Museum, Pantheon and Versailles would just about break even in financial terms.

Of course the Paris Museum Pass also enables you to make repeat visits over several days, particularly useful for the Louvre where you can cover it in bite-size chunks, including evening openings.

It is worth noting that it is now compulsory to book your time slot at the Louvre when using the Paris Museum Pass. You will need to produce both your Paris Museum Pass and document of booked timeslot at entry for each visit. Additionally, most venues are now expecting visitors to pre-book tickets to maintain safe levels of entry during the pandemic. It is always best to check each attraction you want to visit to see their rules and pre-book your timeslot if necessary.
