Information for travelers to Paris - 7 Dec

National Museums in Paris
The following National museums are closed: L'Orangerie Museum, the Rodin Museum, the Picasso museum, and for repairs, the Ennary Museum. National museums in Paris are generally open, some with modified times. You should note that there is an active strike alert for all these museums. The Museum at the Chateau de Compiegne is closed as is the Museum of Franco-American Co-operation at the Chateau of Bierancourt. Other museums outside Paris supposed to be open are the Museum at the Fontainbleau Chateau, the Granges de Port-Royal Museum, the Museum at the Chateau Malmaison, the Renaissance Museum at Ecouen Chateau, the National Antiques Museum at St Germain-en-Laye, and the permanent collections of the Ceramic Museum at Sevres. The press release says the Chateau at Versailles is open, but I have read elsewhere that it is being picketed, so check with the Tourist Office before trying to go all the way out there.
