Musée Eugène-Boudin de Honfleur

The Musée Eugène-Boudin is an art museum in Honfleur that displays paintings by artists inspired by the Normandy coast. The collection includes pastels, oil paintings, and sketches depicting maritime scenes and studies of sky and light.

The museum was founded in the 1860s to preserve works by local artists working with landscapes and maritime scenes. It took its current name to honor the legacy of one of these artists.

The museum displays works by artists drawn to Honfleur's harbor and the way light plays across the sea. The collection reflects how this coastal town attracted painters across multiple generations.

The museum sits in central Honfleur and is within walking distance of the harbor. Visitors should note that opening hours vary by season, so checking ahead is practical before planning your visit.

The museum holds a notable collection of sky studies, as its namesake artist was known for sketching daily weather changes. These drawings show an almost scientific approach to studying light and atmosphere.
