About this place
Rising beside the Bois de Boulogne, Fondation Louis Vuitton is Gehry's glass-sailed Paris landmark: part art museum, part architectural spectacle. Visitors come as much for the layered terraces and shifting reflections as for the exhibitions inside.
Trivia
The building opened in 2014 and is frequently described through its sail-like glass forms, which Gehry used to give the museum a sense of movement in the park setting.
Visiting tips
Check current exhibition and opening schedules before going. The terraces are a major part of the experience, so clear weather improves the visit.
