Mission Départementale Louvre Lens Tourisme Review

Modern museum that will delight the big and the young. Exhibitions on Mesopotamia very well. On site large parking. Electric car parking. All in a natural environment for this former mine site transformed. There is a souvenir shop and bookstore as well as a counter on regional cultural tourism.

Great museum, transparent windows ..... The works are arranged by time is very organized. It offers incentives to solve children, works to find in the gallery ... Very good museum !!!!!!!

Must. We have to go. Go through the door. He democratizes the word museum

This is not the Louvre of Paris but it's just as interesting.
In addition to large space to circulate without too many people.

Worth the detour already for its architecture. By cons, I expected that the museum presents more permanent works.

The temporary exhibition on the theme of love is pleasant, well organized in a well-organized route, neither too long nor too short. We would appreciate the application of this principle for the permanent exhibition ...

Museum gives a very nice overview of history by presenting art from each period. Very interesting museum.

A very nice building, friendly welcome and an exciting time gallery!

Very far from Paris, however it s good to have such place in that region.

The site is really beautiful, surrounded by greenery, the Louvre Lens is really an excellent place for all people who cannot access the capital easily.

Very nice free museum. Good collection. Quick visit in less than 2 hours

The place is magical, the great mediators ....
For a first it was great ... !!!!
To redo so !!!!!

An interesting museum, but associating it with the name of the Louvre is misleading ... very limited collections ...

Without additional exposure, it is visited very quickly. It's a shame

Not recommended for the disabled:
engines because 700 meters of mounted to get to the museum
Visually impaired because too many shiny surfaces (chrome, glass, white) which complicates vision.

Very good
Very nice museum with a staff
Competent and very kind
This seems good
Impeccable sanitary

A pleasant visit although not enough contemporary artists exhibited

Superb space and modern infrastructure but too little exploited. Too little to see in such a large space. There are more supervisors than visitors ... I was hungry after this visit. Brief mismanagement and lack of vision on the part of leaders

Provincial museum with many works on display and a great part is visible free of charge so culture is accessible to all. Large parking lot for easy parking.

The time capsule room is wonderful with original pieces of history. The Homer exhibition was interesting, just wish it had been original pieces and not copies.

Very nice museography, but small collection, poor in painting. The visit leaves you hungry.

Very nice experience. A rich collection and easy presentation for children.

Super museum, free admission except the expo where it is paid but more than reasonable. Super home.
Only downside, the shop where unfortunately all that concerns the museum, it is noted the louvre and not Louvre Lens is a shame because it is not representative of the place itself ...

If you do not cling exclusively and feverishly to the name of Louvre-Lens, you will not make any comparison with its Parisian namesake, your free spirit can then enjoy a museum with ambitious dimensions and design, visible from the access aisle (attention: a little long for people with walking difficulties, but pleasant), dimensions that allow, even on the very coveted Sunday of Heritage Days, to move easily, without the impression of hustle and bustle. The works presented are eclectic enough to allow all members of a family or a heterogeneous group to have a great time.

Place of culture .... An approach to works to appreciate the eras

Beautiful cultural space that deserves to be enriched.

Superb museum: the collection is very important and the scenography (which is incredible) changes regularly. Do not hesitate to call on the guides on site: they are excellent !!

This is a great museum! Very modern architecture. Glass, aluminium and concrete are the main materials used. The museum has one main huge gallery with great artifacts from prehestoric period to 19th century , one gallery for the periodic exhibitions and an other called "behind the scenes' that the visitor can have a look at the storerooms of the museum. Very impressive Indeed! Must go if you are close to Lens!

Expo about interesting love but limited by an ideological and social choice. Only the judeochretian view illustrated for the ruling classes and in France is exposed! A somewhat inflated bias in the mining basin! Bourgeois culture of decision makers?
The explanatory texts are written in small, at a distance we can not approach them and they are put very low. Low back pain guaranteed. Is it for small and wheelchairs or forcing to buy something? At 10 euros the entrance ...

I come to see all the temporary exhibitions which are remarkable each time.
You can attach your bike near the entrance. It's monitored by a camera.
There is a cool cafeteria right next to the well-designed documentation area. You can sip your coffee there while leafing through one of the many works of art at our disposal.
A very good restaurant just opposite for those who have a little money and if not below, other more affordable but also very nice restaurants.
A very good cultural outing.

Large, well appointed, welcoming staff. Some works are wonderful.

Magnificent museum with a very good reception. The exhibition on Poland is rich and impressive. Suitable for all types of public.

Beautiful modern glass museum! Many centuries of history under one roof !! Recommended !

Very well designed, with the sun super, very interesting with a very good guide and very beautiful works

Great museum where you feel the weight of time and you wonder about life and creation!

Not being a regular at the museums, however, I loved our visit except a waiting time too long to enter Diversity of works facilitated to locate in the museum and parkings a little distant

Very beautiful place. Thank you for making art live through non-Parisian places. The provincials have as much right as the Parisians. Art belongs to all French people.

Centenary of Polish immigration to see beautiful paintings and photos

Very nice museum comprising a permanent exhibition (statues, engravings, objects corresponding to the time frame) and a temporary exhibition (currently on Persian art). Very beautiful setting. Toilets, catering, shop. Friendly staff. Several parking lots nearby. To have

Modern museum, possibility to see the reserve. Excellent visit.

I loved the arrangement of the works mixing statues, paintings, pottery ... in the same room. It changes from other museums. A little sad atmosphere in the entrance hall. Few people. Amazing but pleasant to spend time in front of the works

The museum is so big that I expect to have much more work,. we ended the visit at 14h more opportunities to eat, free parking and the museum, and it's superb, to allow all to come

The Louvre Lens museum is an excellent museum, very large very pleasant sober and classy. The exhibitions are varied and very interesting.

The gallery of time (free!) Is simply a breath of fresh air in culture, tracing the human evolution from its beginnings to its most recent works.

The staff is very pleasant and professional whether at the reception or in the cafeteria.

I highly recommend.

I love it very pleasant obviously nothing to do with the Louvre Paris

To see once if you had nothing to do if not much to see

Too bad the pyramid is not there. A flat for access and aesthetics outside

The exhibition on Polish painting and the space for temporary exhibitions deserve 5 stars, but the time gallery is so tasteless that it makes the whole museum lose one star.

Super expo in the gallery of time, spacious and bright. I also enjoyed the temporary Expo on Poland

The Location: Metro #1 & 7, Exit :Palais-Royal Musee du Louvre. The underground metro connect directly to the museum building. You will pass the shopping area then go through the security. After pass the security, information booth is there and also ticketing windows.

The Admission: 15 euro

There are 3 sections of the museum. Take the museum brochure/map with you. There are thousands & thousand of art works. If you want to see every single piece of art...... it is going to take more than one visit!!!

The BIGGEST museum I have ever been too!! The collection they have... UNBELIEVABLE!!

The first piece of art I went to see - the one and only.... MONA LISA!!!

If you only have time for one museum... this has to be the one!!! You won't regret~

A modern museum with a large room "the gallery of time" where the works rotate.
Expo on Iran and the Qajar Empire (1786-1925)

very nice museum I recommend already visited 4 times and I would go back

The very beautiful exhibition "black suns" and the magnificent gallery of time are worth the detour.
You should also enjoy a walk in the wooded park animated by various playful works.
