The pink house with green shutters on the banks of the Seine in Argenteuil was home to Claude Monet and his family in the 1870s. Renovated and fitted out to welcome the public around the theme of Impressionism, it offers visitors an immersive and entertaining tour, combining antique furniture and digital tools that bring to life the paintings of the Impressionist leader.

Conceived as a treasure hunt, the tour takes in the whole house, inviting visitors to open closets, drawers and shutters, right up to the newly refurbished garden. Enhanced by narrative films and reproductions of paintings, visitors can discover Monet's life in Argenteuil, in a house whose architecture is characteristic of the 19th-century "villégiature" style.

The highlight of the experience is a recreation of Monet's workshop boat, immersing visitors in the atmosphere of a floating studio. In terms of his pictorial output, Monet's period in Argenteuil was a prolific one. He painted 259 pictures, over 150 of which were of Argenteuil and the surrounding area. Town or country, nature or industry: the painter's canvases cover a wide range of themes.

For a short break, don't miss the winter garden, offering a breathtaking view of the garden. It has been replanted with the flower species of the period, also faithful to the painter's paintings and drawings. The garden was also used as a studio by the Impressionists, including Édouard Manet, who set up his easel here.
