2 works across 2 institutions
Paris holds 2 works by Albrecht Dürer across 2 institutions, including Louvre Museum and Petit Palais.
Dürer brought the Italian Renaissance to Northern Europe and was the first artist north of the Alps to fully understand himself as a great artist. His self-portraits — among the first in Western art — are extraordinary objects in person: the surface of his panels has a precision that challenges belief.

Louvre Museum
Paris · 1 work on display
The world's largest art museum, home to over 35,000 works from antiquity to the 19th century, housed in a former royal palace on the Seine. Allow at least half a day; the Denon Wing holds most of the painting masterpieces.
Petit Palais
💎 Hidden GemParis · 1 work on display
The Petit Palais houses Paris's City of Paris Museum of Fine Arts, a permanent collection of paintings and decorative arts that is free to enter. The building itself — a Beaux-Arts gem built for the 1900 World's Fair — is as impressive as the collection.
Planning your visit to Paris
Pre-book entry to the Louvre and Musée d'Orsay, especially in summer — queues without a ticket can exceed an hour. Many Paris museums offer free entry on the first Sunday of each month. A day transport pass (carnet) is better value than buying individual Métro tickets.
