How many visitors is too many? Paris museums confront ā€˜over-attendance’

Sylvain Amic, the president of the Ɖtablissement public des musĆ©es d’Orsay et de l’Orangerie (the governmental body that oversees both institutions) since April 2024, puts it plainly: ā€œA museum’s mission is to radiate—to make known and to share its collections with the greatest number of people—so there is a contradiction in the idea of needing to limit how many can come.ā€
