Things to do in The Petit Palais
Built for the 1900 Exposition Universelle, the Petit Palais now houses the City of Paris Museum of Fine Arts (Musée des beaux-arts de la ville de Paris). The Petit Palais is located across from the Grand Palais on Avenue Nicolas II, today Avenue Winston-Churchill. The other façades of the building face the Seine and Avenue des Champs-Elysees.
Reopened in 2005 after its restoration, the Petit Palais museum presents a permanent collection of fine arts from antiquity to the dawn of the 20th century. Temporary exhibitions are regularly displayed (Rubens, Goya ...).

Reviews The Petit Palais
“Balade sur Seine très agréable mais je regrette le manque d'informations sur les nombreux arrêts fermés. Nous avons dû marcher 40 mn au lieu de 5 pour trouver un arrêt et avons été mal renseignés par les employés sur place”
“personnel sympathique, bateaux réguliers, pas d'attente (week end de Paques), valable 24h00”
“Pratique, reposant quand on a beaucoupFlâné à pied, équipe à bord aimable et accueillant.Seul bémol, certaines stationnas non desservies pour travaux, améliorer le signalement de ce type d'information sur les quais au départ.”
“Personnel sympathique. Bateau confortable”
