"Renoir Painting Spot" Chatou by BeatChick

Chatou Travel Guide: 1 reviews and 2 photos

Bonjour!

Welcome to Chatou, a small sleepy town 20 minutes west outside of Paris on the RER from the Charles de Gaulle Etoile stop!

Located here is the Maison Fournaise where Renoir painted his famous "Luncheon of the Boating Party" on the Ile des Impressionists or Isle of the Impressionists.

Please check out my ONE tip for this location ~ hope you enjoy your brief visit!

    Ah, what a delicious afternoon lingering over a wonderful meal. Did you have the rhubarbe for desert? One of my father's favorites (French father..Polish mother)
