Make a day of northeast Paris
Choose an arts hall, a hillside park or a Cambodian meal. Four starting points for getting beyond the centre.
Culture Paris
Sculpture, former working spaces and garden courtyards near Montparnasse. The permanent collection is free to enter.
Give sculpture an afternoon of its own. Bourdelle’s museum brings the work into the setting of an artist’s former studios, with garden spaces that invite a pause between rooms. A short visit can be satisfying: pick a few forms to look at closely.
The museum currently directs visitors to the green gate at number 16 rue Antoine-Bourdelle during reception works; its postal address remains number 18. Permanent collections are free, while temporary exhibitions and activities can cost extra. Last admission is 17:15. The garden photograph dates from 2009; this is a source-checked introduction, not a recent on-site review.
