About Musée Rodin

Rodin rented rooms in the Hôtel Biron from 1908 and left his work to the state on condition it became a museum, which opened in 1919. Inside are The Kiss in marble, studies for Balzac and a room of works by Camille Claudel.

Outside, The Thinker sits among rose beds, The Burghers of Calais stand together, and The Gates of Hell fill a wall. The garden, with its café, is one of the calmest spots in the 7th arrondissement.

Know before you go

  • Closed on Mondays.
  • Large bags are not accepted; security check at entry.
  • Until 12 October 2026 a temporary structure stands in the garden; the sculptures stay on view.
  • Garden paths are gravel, which is tricky with some pushchairs.
