Audio Guide of André Malraux Museum of Modern Art (MuMa)

MuMa is usually open from Tuesday to Sunday. We recommend always checking the official opening hours page before your visit, as they may vary. It is located on Boulevard Clemenceau, 76600 Le Havre, and is easily reached on foot from the city center or by public transport.

General admission is around €7. Reduced rates are available for students, unemployed visitors, and seniors. Visitors under 26 and holders of certain tourist passes usually receive free admission. It is always advisable to check the museum website for updated prices and free-entry conditions.

To fully enjoy MuMa’s permanent collection and temporary exhibitions, we suggest planning between 1.5 and 2.5 hours. If you are a lover of Impressionist and Fauvist art, you could easily extend your visit.

MuMa is pioneering for its natural light and its seafront location, offering a unique experience. It is one of the most important museums in France for Impressionist and Fauvist art, with an exceptional collection including works by Monet, Boudin, Dufy, and Marquet. Its importance lies in both its rich collection and its role as a benchmark of modern museum design.

For a quieter experience, we recommend visiting MuMa during the week, preferably first thing in the morning just after opening or later in the afternoon. As for the time of year, spring and autumn are usually less crowded than summer.
