In order to promote French culture, the French Ministry of Culture and Communication has decided to make a few of its museums free of charge for six months.

From January 1 - June 30, 2008, these Paris museums will be free of charge (for permanent collections only):
The musée Guimet
The musée de Cluny
The musée des Arts et Métiers
The musée des Antiquités Nationales de Saint-Germain-en-Laye
The musée national de la Renaissance d’Ecouen
Le musée de l’Air et de l’Espace du Bourget

During the same time period, anyone 18 -26 will have free access to some larger museums in Paris, on certain days of the week and only from 6 p.m. - 9 p.m.:
Wednesday: The musée national d’Art moderne, centre Georges Pompidou
Thursday: The musée d’Orsay
Friday: The Louvre
Saturday: The musée du quai Branly

Gitte, I didn't post the link to this website (that I didn't know about), but I did post a thread early this month about this free museums experimentation :
