Ile des Impressionnistes
Chatou, 78400
Nearest Train: RER A: arrêt Rueil Malmaison
WebsiteThe Ile des Impressionnistes of Chatou gives visitors an enjoyable experience of art history that evokes the spirit of the impressionist movement simply by its physical characteristics; Monet, Manet, and Pissaro were among those fascinated by the play of light on the water surrounding this litte island. Both the Musée Fournaise and a restaurant of traditional French cuisine (http://www.restaurant-fournaise.fr) today occupy an old boat-building workshop on the island. It also holds lovely gardens to stroll through, a center of contemporary art known as the cneai, and a second restaurant and tea room called Les Rives de la Courtille.
