Picasso Museum

Picasso Museum

Introduction After Picasso's death in 1973, he left behind a large body of work. His heirs chose to pay inheritance taxes to the French authorities by donating artworks, and the French government established the Picasso Museum for these works.

In this 17th-century building, visitors can view works from every creative period of the Spanish painter: from his Pink and Blue Periods, through Cubism, to more abstract expressions. The museum houses a total of 203 paintings, 158 sculptures, 88 ceramic pieces, 1,500 drawings, and 1,600 prints by Picasso. It also holds original manuscripts by Picasso as well as other collections. Transportation: Metro Lines 1 and 11, Hotel de Ville Station Tickets / Opening Hours: Adults €5.5, children free, first Sunday of each month free.

Opening Hours: 9:30–18:00 from April to September, 9:00–17:30 from October to March. Closed on Tuesdays, January 1 and December 25.
