The artist and gardener Claude Monet lived there for 43 years, with his wife and children, until his death in 1926.

You will plunge into the universe of the prodigious impressionist painter, famous for his landscape paintings such as the "Nympheas," "the Japanese Bridge," or "the Iris." Fascinated by color variations and gardening, Claude Monet designed his garden of flowers, fruit trees, and water gardens as works of art. During your visit, you will walk along the central path leading to the house lined with nasturtiums and roses of all kinds, and you will contemplate the flowerbeds: tulips, irises, narcissus, peonies. You will walk through the Clos Normand planted with many plants of Asian origin to reach the sumptuous water garden so famous for its water lilies, its weeping willows, and its Japanese bridge painted in green. You will be seduced by the atmosphere of the place.

You will also visit Claude Monet's pink plastered house, which was his place of work and life for many years (interior guided tour prohibited due to the narrowness of the premises). You will discover the blue reading room, the grocery store, Claude Monet's workshop reconstructed with the furniture already on the premises, as well as his private apartments. You will enter the very modern dining room for the time with its earthenware pottery, and see one of the most important collections of Japanese prints in the world.

After your visit to the Monet Foundation, you will have free time : wander around the village of Giverny or discover the Museum of Impressionism where you can admire the most beautiful works of the impressionist movement on your own.
