Delacroix, Picasso, Roman culture and Calvados lead the way for the opening of new museums and amazing exhibits this year.
First, thanks to backing from the New York Met, the Louvre will put together a retrospective exhibit of 19th century artist Eugene Delacroix’s work between March 29th and July 23rd. At the same time as the Delacroix exhibit, Paris’s Petit Palais will showcase works from famous Dutch painters who once called the French capital home.
As for museum openings, one of the most exciting openings next year is Nîmes’s Museum of Roman Culture on June 2nd. Here visitors will learn all about Nîmes’s interesting past with special emphasis on its time under Roman rule. In case you were wondering, it cost €60 million to construct this state-of-the-art museum.
Yet another interesting museum opening next year is the Calvados Experience in Pont-l’Évêque. For those who don’t know, calvados is a special kind of apple brandy that’s only produced in Normandy. Guests to this museum won’t only learn about calvados, they’ll get to experience it with all five senses! The Calvados Experience is set to open in March.
