A museum opened in 1986 in Paris that used to be the Orsay Station (Gare d'Orsay). It houses French art from 1848 to 1915.

The station building was built from 1898 to 1900

these are some of my better on the coach shots of the museum.

The Musée d'Orsay is a museum in Paris, France, on the left bank of the Seine, housed in the former railway station, the Gare d'Orsay. It holds mainly French art dating from 1848 to 1915, including paintings, sculptures, furniture, and photography, and is probably best known for its extensive collection of impressionist masterpieces by popular painters such as Monet and Renoir. Many of these works were held at the Galerie nationale du Jeu de Paume prior to the museum's opening in 1986.

Passing the square with the entrance to the Gare du Musée d'Orsay. Rhino sculpture is now on the left.
