Rodin Museum & Sculptures Garden Skip-the-Line Tickets with Official Audio Guide

About this experience

Rodin Museum & Sculptures Garden Skip-the-Line Tickets The Rodin Museum houses the world's most comprehensive collection of Auguste Rodin's sculptures, paintings, and sketches in an elegant 18th-century mansion in Paris. Your skip-the-line ticket grants immediate access to both the museum's two floors of exhibits and the stunning 7.4-acre sculpture garden, where you can admire masterpieces like The Thinker and The Gates of Hell surrounded by manicured lawns and peaceful pathways. Inside the museum, you'll discover not only Rodin's famous works but also pieces from his personal collection, including paintings by Van Gogh and Renoir. The exhibits span finished sculptures, working models, ceramics, and rare archival documents that reveal the artist's creative process. The mansion itself adds to the experience, having once served as a gathering place for Paris's artistic elite. The sculpture garden transforms your visit into something special. Seven acres of landscaped grounds showcase bronze versions of Rodin's most celebrated works, creating an outdoor gallery where art and nature complement each other perfectly. Whether you're photographing The Burghers of Calais or simply sitting near The Thinker, the garden offers a serene contrast to Paris's busy streets. Highlights The Thinker, Rodin's most famous sculpture displayed both indoors and in the garden The Gates of Hell, an monumental bronze door featuring over 180 figures from Dante's Inferno The Kiss, showcasing Rodin's mastery of marble and romantic expression Van Gogh's Pere Tanguy and Renoir's Nude in the Sunlight from Rodin's personal art collection The Burghers of Calais, a powerful group sculpture commemorating medieval heroes Working studios and maquettes showing Rodin's artistic process and techniques Plan Your Visit to Rodin Museum The museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10am to 6:30pm, closed on Mondays. Plan to spend 2-3 hours exploring both the indoor exhibits and garden sculptures at a comfortable pace. Early morning visits around opening time offer the best experience with fewer crowds and optimal lighting for photography in the gardens. The museum is located at 77 Rue de Varenne in the 7th arrondissement, easily reached by metro lines 13 (Varenne station) or 8 (Invalides station). Both stations are within a 5-minute walk of the entrance. Photography is permitted throughout without flash, and the venue provides full wheelchair accessibility with step-free entrances and audio guides for visually impaired visitors. If you're exploring more of Paris's artistic treasures, consider visiting the nearby Musée d'Orsay for impressionist masterpieces or taking a Seine river cruise to see the city's landmarks from the water. The first Sunday of each month from October through March offers free admission for budget-conscious travellers.
