Not too much to see other than the beautiful building. Sometimes they have exhibits inside that are pretty good. More

We didn't have time to go inside so only saw the outside. It is a very beautiful and powerful building. They also had a concert coming up in front of the building while we were there so it was lovely.

This is a terrific exhibit (audioguides in French and English for 5E; admission free; brochure in English), and it was crowded during my visit as it's such a feel good gallery of artwork. There's much more than The New... More
