THE MARAIS ART WALK

The Marais, one gallery at a time

Make one museum your anchor, then let the neighborhood take over. Picasso, a few gallery doors, quiet courtyards and something good to eat: enough for a memorable day.

01 / YOUR ANCHOR

Musée Picasso-Paris

Start at the Hôtel Salé. Check the current exhibition layout and ticket conditions, and resist the urge to fit every other Marais institution into the same morning.

Marais galleries

Use the Paris tourism office’s gallery guide to choose two or three addresses that appeal to you. The guide is a starting point: opening days and exhibition schedules must be checked with each gallery.

Something good to eat

Pause for a café or browse Devour’s Paris food experience if you want a guided food-and-culture extension. Confirm the actual tour route, timing and meeting point; it is not part of this self-guided walk.
