This winter, take the time to visit the Gustave Moreau Museum.
Discovering the Gustave Moreau Museum
The Gustave Moreau National Museum offers an exceptional immersion into the fascinating world of Symbolist painter Gustave Moreau (1826–1898) in Paris. Housed in the artist’s former home and studio, the museum presents a unique journey through nearly 14,000 works—paintings, drawings, watercolors, and sketches—that reveal the creative richness and powerful imagination of one of the masters of French Symbolism. As visitors move through the rooms and floors, they discover not only masterpieces, but also the intimacy of a space designed by the artist himself to showcase his work and preserve his legacy.
The 9th Arrondissement – A Cultural and Inspiring District
Paris’s 9th arrondissement has a distinctive charm, where cultural vibrancy blends seamlessly with Parisian elegance. Historic theaters, independent bookshops, literary cafés, and art galleries line its streets, inviting visitors to wander, explore, and find inspiration. It is a lively area where art can be felt on every corner—from the Opéra district to the Grands Boulevards, via covered passages and more confidential addresses. Visiting the Gustave Moreau Museum in such a dynamic setting naturally enhances the cultural experience, turning a simple walk into a continuous journey of discovery.
Hôtel Les Plumes – A Poetic Retreat in the Heart of Paris
After a day of artistic exploration, there is nothing more pleasant than staying in a place that extends the experience. Hôtel Les Plumes, located in the 9th arrondissement, offers an atmosphere that blends the romantic charm of the 19th century with contemporary comfort.
