"The tiny Bourdelle Museum was once the atelier and home of sculptor Antoine Bourdelle, whose monumental art deco masterpieces are a highlight ofthe Champs-Élysées Theater. The museum displays works the artist purchased for his own inspiration, as well as his own largest pieces in an airy, light-flooded hall, an open-air gallery, and a sculpture garden. In aworkshop area, the process of casting bronze sculptures is demonstrated. A tiny rose garden with lounge chairs providesa welcoming oasis to neighbors and visitors. This is the ideal museum for giving young children afirst taste of fine art and for those who like art in small doses."

In Defense of the Long-Distance Relationship

"Instead, I'd stroll over to the Antoine Bourdelle museum, or pop into a bakery and savor a flaky mille-feuille."

A wonderful museum set on the artist’s studio. The entry is free of charge. There is a cafe with a terrace in the upper level. The collection of monumental sculptures, smaller works, sketches and plaster works is amazing. The artists studio is still as it was during his life. The gardens are lovely and display some of the large works. A fabulous museum for an important artist.

Really a hidden gem. It’s free, the perfect size, and a nice mix of education about sculpture making, incredible art, and history sharing about the location. I went 1.5 hrs before closing on a weekday, and nearly had the place to myself.

Beautiful museum that shows the whole process of sculpting, organized so that you can just enjoy your stroll or read/listen in depth to the information, somewhere i would want to return many times. The cafe looks so cute too!

An extraordinary sculpture museum, filled with Bourdelle's monumental works. Excellent videos and displays show how he created. We stumbled upon the museum and spent hours there.

This is the best museum ever. I spent almost 4 hours. Right from the entrance I had a great time... They were very courteous... The interior superb... The works.. masterpieces .. less popular among tourists... This is small but wonderful. In india we say "chota packet, bada dhamaka"... The restaurant was super cool.....I love it... I carried home the food since I did not want the other family members to miss it.. though they live in Paris they have not yet visited this place... The kids also have a special place for them.. with art kit etc. I am coming again soon.....

A free museum, not that well-known in Paris. Very charming, with sculptures and an artist studio. The coffee shop is also cute

Great pleasure to visit the Musée Antoine Bourdelle, and it was a fantastic experience! 🎨 The museum showcases incredible sculptures by the famous French artist, Antoine Bourdelle, and the setting is beautiful. The space is not too crowded, making it easy to appreciate the artwork in peace. 🗿 The sculptures are stunning, and I loved how the museum is divided into different areas, each highlighting various phases of Bourdelle’s work. The outdoor garden is also a lovely spot to relax and enjoy the art. 🌳 I highly recommend this museum to anyone interested in sculpture and modern art. It’s a peaceful retreat from the usual tourist crowds, and you can really immerse yourself in the art. 🙌

Lots of excellent bronze statues. Some are huge and imposing You get to see the process of going from an idea through clay, plaster, scaling and bronze. I loved the gardens with their works. €zero

I love the musee bourdelle. Bourdelle's most recognizable sculpture is Herakles the Archer. He made numerous sculptures based on Greek and Roman figures. I love the scale and grandeur of the main gallery which is a huge room over 40 ft high filled with bourdelle's monumental works. I've only visited in the winter where you are alone with a guard and the hum of the heaters. Every move you make echoes. Quiet yourself at the far end and take it all in. It's a room to dream in. Bourdelle was clearly an influence on Ray Harryhausen when he sculpted the Colossus for Jason and the Argonauts. The museum is free. Not far from the Montparnasse train station. And just around the corner from the Stardom Shop selling Moebius collectibles.

A fantastic museum. The sculptures are astounding. The museum includes the artist's studio, almost intact. It's informative, has a beautiful garden, and is a true treasure. And it's free.
