About Vernon Museum

The Musée Blanche Hoschedé-Monet, housed in a rare 15th-18th century mansion that survived the 1944 bombings, is the only museum in the Vernon-Giverny area with original Claude Monet paintings. The collection features two Monet works including a circular "Water Lilies" tondo gifted by the artist himself in 1925, alongside the world's largest public collection of works by Blanche Hoschedé-Monet, his stepdaughter and only student. The museum also showcases important Nabis movement paintings by Pierre Bonnard, Félix Vallotton, and Maurice Denis, plus an exceptional Steinlen collection from Montmartre's Belle Époque era.

The museum has fascinating origins as a natural history collection. In 1862, François de Brécourt donated approximately 2,000 naturalized bird specimens from Normandy and distant lands, establishing the museum's foundation. This ornithological heritage continues today through the museum's unique animal art collection, which includes prestigious deposits from the Louvre and Musée d'Orsay.
