Beautiful place to go. While we were in Rouen all museums were free entry so can't comment on the price value. Go directly to the second floor to see the Impressionist paintings.

Rouen is such a pedestrian haven in the old town, and this museum is just a great location at the North end of it all. From Beaux-Arts you can take the malls and sidewalks to the plaza of... More

Easy to find, as most historical attractions are fairly close to each other in this lovely old city, the Musee de Beaux Arts was a welcome relief from the winter freeze of 2012.

It was closed but we can walk inside and see the old traditional building style of Rouen. It is a little bit scary as it was an old hospital before. More

We visited this museum to look at the Impressionist paintings and were not disappointed. All of the paintings are very easily viewed. It was not crowded and you could take your time looking at the paintings. The staff were were very friendly and helpful. It is a lot easier to look around than the crowded Paris museums. More
