Galeries nationales du Grand Palais, Art gallery in 8th arrondissement of Paris, France
The Galeries nationales du Grand Palais occupies a large exhibition space under a glass dome within a Beaux-Arts building near Champs-Élysées.
The Grand Palais opened its doors in 1900 as part of the Universal Exhibition, presenting French artistic achievements to international visitors.
The galleries maintain an active program of temporary exhibitions featuring both historical masterworks and contemporary artworks from international collections.
The exhibition space remains closed for renovations until 2024, with plans to reopen for the Paris Olympic Games that summer.
The building served as a military hospital during World War I, where artists decorated patient rooms to support recovery efforts.
