The demonstrations planned in Paris this Saturday, October 24, 2026 are prompting further precautionary closures in the capital, following last weekend’s violence and damage. Several cultural venues have already announced that they will close, including the Musée de l'Orangerie, located in the 1st arrondissement. The museum confirms that it will not welcome any visitors this Saturday, due to the closure of the Tuileries Garden, announced in response to the demonstrations.

It will therefore be impossible to visit the famous Water Lilies by Claude Monet, the Walter-Guillaume Collection or the temporary exhibition Monet, Painting Time this Saturday. Guided tours and family activities scheduled for Saturday are also affected. No extension of this measure to Sunday, October 25, has been announced for now.
Have you already booked your visit? The Musée de l'Orangerie says that all timed-entry tickets purchased through its official ticket office will be refunded automatically. Affected visitors therefore do not need to take any action. However, the museum has not specified the refund process or timeline, nor has it provided instructions for tickets purchased from third-party resellers.
Before heading out on Sunday, it’s best to check the latest information posted on the establishment’s official website.
