About Gustave Moreau museum
In a quiet quarter of Paris, the Gustave Moreau Museum offers one of the most intimate and atmospheric museum experiences in the city, occupying the very house and studio of the great Symbolist painter, arranged by the artist himself before his death to preserve his life's work. Its spectacular studios, connected by a magnificent spiral staircase, are hung floor to ceiling with hundreds of Moreau's paintings, watercolours and drawings — dreamlike, jewel-like visions of myth, legend and mystery that shimmer with colour and detail. The apartments below preserve the artist's private world. Enchanting, unusual and gloriously overflowing with art, the Gustave Moreau Museum immerses visitors in the imagination of a singular master, a hidden gem of Paris that offers a magical encounter with Symbolist painting in the setting where it was created.
