I did love the museum but the gardens captured my heart. The next time I go to Paris, if the weather is good, I plan to go there to read, write or contemplate. The best part is it was only 1 euro for the gardens which I think is a fantastic deal, especially since there are several sculptures in the... more

1 euro into the garden to relax and take in the most amazing statues,gardens and ambience.The indoor collection is well worth a visit and a couple of hours will do both if your not up to the gruelling hike through the Louvre. more

We probably didn't see this in its best light. It was a very hot day at a very tourist-y time of year. We paid to tour the actual museum but I don't htink that was necessary. The grounds were the most stunning and I think are available to tour at a reduced. In that respect, it's a steal. more

This is my favourite museum in Paris and in the 10 days I stayed in Paris I returned twice. Each time I rented the audio and slowly wound my way through the gallery and into the garden enjoying the descriptions of his unique sculptures. The quiet "Meditation Garden" was a serene oasis where I spent a half hour writing in... more

So many museums and galleries in Paris are a complete rip off so when I found out that the Rodin museum was only 6 Euros, I was a bit suspicious it would not live up to expectations, however, I was wrong. We didn’t take the audioguide (extra charge), and many of the tags are only in French which is typical... more

The Rodin museum was one that I thought was average. There are 2 floors in the main building with special exhibits then housed in the building where you get tickets and have a bookstore. Obviously the pieces displayed are magnificant but for the museum itself, I wasn't that impressed. We went on an August afternoon and while not an really... more

If you like the gardens of Paris and are looking for new places to go, try these gardens at the Rodin Museum. I think one thing that makes this one good is the way it works with the mansion as an urban garden, although it was originally the private residential garden for Rodin. There are many sculptures throughout the garden... more

Very tranquil and fascinating museum, right next door to Invalides. Lovely Salon de The under the trees in the gardens. more

...unless you're a hardcore Rodin fan. The gardens really are wonderful--"The Thinker" is here, as well as "The Burghers of Calais" (along with individual studies from that piece). However, the building is pretty shopworn--a bit dingy, a bit cluttered. The displays inside are in desperate need of real curation; one gets the sense that nothing has really been done to... more

Fabulous!

I recommend this museum to all travelers, the sculptures are magnificent, the museum is wonderful. I visited today, it was a very hot day, I had the opportunity to enjoy the shade that the garden offered and then enjoy the coolness of the museum. Even non Rodin fans would have difficulty criticizing any part of the Musee Rodin, exquisite art,... more
