Musée des Peintres de Barbizon, Art museum in Barbizon, France.

The Musée des Peintres de Barbizon occupies a former farmhouse transformed into an inn, displaying paintings and drawings from 19th-century landscape artists.

The building served as Ganne Inn from 1834, providing accommodation and gathering space for numerous artists who came to paint the Fontainebleau forest.

The museum preserves works by Théodore Rousseau, Jean-François Millet, and Rosa Bonheur, representing the transition from Realism to Impressionism in French art.

The museum consists of two locations: the Ganne Inn with preserved dormitory rooms and Théodore Rousseau's house-workshop, which hosts temporary exhibitions.

The ground floor maintains the original inn's layout, featuring dining rooms where artists gathered, with walls covered in painted decorations from that period.
