Musee Maillol

About

The Musée Maillol, housed in a historic building at 61 rue de Grenelle in Paris, is home to the world’s largest collection of the sculptor Aristide Maillol, spanning his formative works from 1884 to the late 1930s. Visitors walk through a chronologically arranged permanent gallery that showcases Maillol’s bronze figures, marble busts, and intricate drawings, complemented by a temporary exhibition program twice a year featuring masters such as Picasso, Basquiat and contemporary artists. Admission is modest: 16.90 € for adults, 12.90 € for youths aged 6–18, while children under six enter free of charge. Weekend and weekday hours run from 10:30 am to 6:30 pm, with Wednesday night extendable until 10:00 pm for special late‑hour programmes. Online booking is strongly recommended to secure a slot, but tickets can still be purchased on the day of visit subject to availability. Beyond the artworks, the museum offers a historic Café Prévert, which welcomes guests for coffee and light snacks, and a free‑access desk where visitors can obtain free umbrellas, storage lockers, and special guidebooks. The museum’s architecture, a blend of 20th‑century design and former 19th‑century aristocratic palazzo, creates an intimate backdrop for seeing Maillol’s genius up close.
