The Marmottan Monet Museum is open from Tuesday to Sunday, from 10 am to 6 pm, with the last entry at 5 pm. And from here, you’re close to other points of interest, such as the Bois de Boulogne (650 meters), the Louis Vuitton Foundation (2.5 km), and the Acclimatization Garden (2.6 km).ĭue to its excellent location in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, the Marmottan Monet Museum is served by various types of public transport: metro (line 9, La Muette or Ranelagh stations), train (line C, Boulainvilliers station), and bus (lines 22 or 52, La Muette – Boulainvilliers stop lines 32 or 70, Louis-Boilly stop among others). The Marmottan Monet Museum is located at number 2 on Rue Louis-Boilly, a street named after Louis-Léopold Boilly – a French painter, miniaturist, and engraver, active in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. And it was precisely in the 1990s that the Marmottan Museum became the Marmottan Monet Museum. Since then, the Marmottan Museum has been enriched with donations from Eugène and Victorine Donop de Monchy (in 1940), Michel Monet (in 1966), and Denis and Annie Rouart (in 1993), among others. And this institution inaugurated the property as the Marmottan Museum on June 21st, 1934, just two years after the death of its patron. In his will, Paul Marmottan bequeathed his house and the contents that decorated it to the Academy of Fine Arts (in French, Académie des beaux-arts).
