For the museum, temporary exhibitions and Salle Ovale, use 5 rue Vivienne; 58 rue de Richelieu is for research-library access, groups, cardholders and visitors with disabilities. Security checks are reinforced, so a reserved or timed ticket does not remove the entrance check: only cabin-size luggage up to 55 × 35 × 25 cm is accepted, and backpacks, small luggage, umbrellas and walking sticks must be left at the cloakroom.
The official benchmark is €6 for the “1-day Research Pass.” No partner offer is available here for a direct price comparison, so check the final checkout total and included benefits before paying.
The Oval Room is free and open to everyone with no age limit, via 5 rue Vivienne. Museum and temporary-exhibition access has separate full-price, reduced and exemption rules; eligibility can depend on age, status, pass ownership and proof documents, and reservations are recommended even when admission is free or reduced. The research reading rooms are different: access requires research eligibility, supporting documents and a valid Research Pass.
Arrive early enough for security checks, ticket scanning and wayfinding.
