MUSEE D'ORSAY. OrBuilt in 1900, the D'Orsay was a train station. But, as trains became longer, by 1939 the platforms were too short. In 1986 the station's renovation into a museum was complete. It houses a huge collection of Impressionism on the fourth floor. Usually, I skip the other floors and rush to the Impressionists. However, there are treasures throughout.
