II know the Orangerie has reopened.
However on the Museum Pass site it still says it is closed for renovation.
Has anyone visited using Museum Pass?
the site (Orangerie) is in French and my reading is not sufficient to translate.
Plus a lot (none that I have found) of the museum website do not show if they accept Museum Pass

I think it will reopen May -1-2007 ...Badget Travel News !!!

It has reopened per TA Travelers Reviews. Last one dated Jan. 07
|||
It is open, I was there in August. And yes, it is part of the museum pass even if the site says closed for reno.

I used the Museum Pass for the Orangerie last November. You can check the website for the Pass at www.intermusees.fr for a complete list of sites included and all the other vital info. The website is in English!

You can order reserve tickets online through FNAC, pick them up at one of their stores.

Yes, the Paris Museum Pass (intermusees.com) site is in English but shows Orangerie as still closed. I was surprised to see it still listed as closed as I know it reopened as there is a TA travelers review for 1-1-07 and have seen posts regarding it also.
The Orangerie%26#39;s website (using link through TA at Attractions) is in French!

Not only is it open, it was ny absolute favorite on our family trip in November. It is also covered by the museum pass. It was soooo lovely to be able to bypass the long line of people standing in the rain and go right in. The museum pass is worth every penny.

Oh, yes my fav too. Was very disappointed in 2000 that it had been closed for renovation, but that the Water Lilies were supposed to still be on display, which we found was not the case.
I am a huge Monet fan, have a cape, a purse, nightlight, etc. with Waterlilies motif.
The fact you can bypass the lines will probably be my deciding factor on the pass.
I am also pleased to see a 2 day pass is now available.

We bought a huge poster at the l%26#39;Orangerie back in November. I think I pais about 10-15 euros for the poster. The framing cost us $140 dollars. We ahd to special order a frame to fit. But, it is worth every penny as it is gorgeous and going on our bedroom wall.

Yes, its open, and its on the pass. In fact, when we were in Paris in January we were strolling through the Tuileries around 5pm and noticed a long line....I realized that it was for L%26#39;Orangerie. It was about an hour before closing...and there was NO line for the museum pass. So we ducked in and had a chance to see the Monet panels on our last evening in Paris! We didn%26#39;t spend as much time as I would have liked, but hubbie was %26quot;museumed out%26quot; at that point and was only willing to do that much.....
btw, as we walked out we handed our passes to a couple deep in the line (who we were sure otherwise would never make it in before closing!) and told them to enjoy the last evening on them. I think they thought we were trying to scam them, but they thanked us and scooted forward to the entrance!
