I recommend this museum for visitors who want to explore fin arts but also Algerian art style, some areas offer exhibition from Fine Arts school students which gives à glimpse on Algerian artistic talents. There also works from different renowned global artists like Paul Lapra, Berthe Morisot, Emile Bernard, Picasso, Camille Pissarro, Nasreddine Etienne Dinet. There also many decorative elements that holds historical value from the Ottoman Empire and the beautiful Pre-colonaziation Era. The rooftop Terasse is wonderful offering a city view including Algiers shore and Hamma Botanical Garden. The entrances fees are about 200da, you have to 150da in order to take pictures and food is not allowed, you also have to keep big bags or luggage at the entrance.

An amazing place to visit. It might strike people coming from Europe as old, it IS OLD, but this adds more charm to the place. You'll get to see paintings from different eras, different countries and different schools, but the best paintings are those of Mohammed Racim, Bachir Yelles and the exquisite Baya Mahieddine. This is the only museum in the world where you get to enjoy the delight of this trio together. It would also be a great experience for children to visit it.

Musée très intéressant par ses collections uniques, riches et représentatives de notre pays et de son histoire mais qui ne sont malheureusement que très peu mises en valeur par un personnel de surveillance et de sécurité négligent. A l'entrée on se croirait au bar d'un café comme il y en a tant en Algérie et dans les étages on vous agresse car on pense que vous prenez des photos alors que vous regarder simplement l'heure sur votre téléphone. Par contre, les chats qui entrent par la terrasse ne semblent pas déranger, l'odeur de la fumée de cigarette au sein même des lieux d'exposition non plus et encore moins l'amas de chaises qu'on trouve au niveau des escaliers ou encore les discussions assourdissantes du personnel d'accueil qui ne se compose uniquement d'hommes à la voix roque . Quel accueil! .La médiation reste pratiquement inexistante et le visiteur peut se sentir perdu face à cet immense enchainement de chefs d'oeuvre sans forcément d'information écrite ou personne ayant la capacité de répondre a vos interrogations ou curiosités. Le musée ne doit plus se contenter de présenter des tableaux et des sculptures. Un musée n'est rien sans son public et pour qu'il y ait dialogue et attraction entre ces deux maillons essentiels, beaucoup de choses peuvent encore être faites pour donner une image nouvelle du musée en général, qui reste un lieu de plaisir, de délectation et d'instruction

Great museum for the area and right off the subway of Jardin D’…however they charge an additional 200 dinars to take pictures and if the staff sees you taking pictures they will ask to see your receipt. We had about three employees tell us which public areas we couldn’t see. I do wish they put more TLC into this place, lots of dust, smell of mildew, crooked paintings. But it’s a great way to get some culture and art. I would recommend for a one time visit.
