Fantastic museum. Great interactive displays, audio guide is excellent, and really worth getting as adds to the experience. Lots and lots of information. It's definitely worth a visit.

A small but very impressive collection from the Louvre located around an hour away from Calais.

Impressive building design and architecture and contents spanning human development to the present day.

Parking available close to the museum, recommend to allow 1-2 hours for a comprehensive visit.

Beautiful display of pieces with loads of room to move around. Nice collection overal. Staff is very helpful and friendly with a nice introduction on entry of all the expo's. Spend the entire day there watching all the expo's, since opening till closing time. Cafe and picknick area is nice with wide range of food. Parked in the road at entrance since the parking is more far away.

Very good annex to the Louvre in Paris.
The exhibition hall had a great display of the evolution of art from Egyptian times through to present day. Plus a Vermeer exhibition. Well laid out and extremely informative.
The Fantastic animals exhibition would have been great to see if I had time to do it justice.
Interesting modern low level building built on the site of a disused colliery. Well presented and spacious.

This is a wonderful place to visit. I loved it! The very open plan design of the museum was so inviting and the special exhibition of Fantastic Animals with the masked attendants in the foyer was spectacular. I would have given the visit 6 stars out of 5 were it not for the dreadful parking facilities. We drove around the nearby residential streets for way too long (the offsite recommended parking lots were small and full). If you build it, they will come. If they come, you need to provide parking.

Great collection. The grounds are lovely too. I also enjoyed the special eclair in the cafe. It was made to celebrate the mythical beasts exhibition - which annoyingly for me started the day after my visit and would have been exactly what I’m into. Despite my timing a great gallery.

What a fantastic day at the Louvre-Lens! 3000m² with over 200 works of art...so beautiful!
Don't miss the gift shop - although rather expensive, it is filled with gorgeous things. We would go again!

We drove quite a long way to get here . There was less to see than I thought but a beautiful space . It’s an a weird area but I think that was part of the French decentralised plan !
There is one massive room you can go into for free showing ancient and classic treasures .
