Musée Atger

The museum is located in one of the buildings belonging to the Department of Medicine, and is the oldest museum in the entire city. It contains artworks carefully gathered by collector Xavier Atger, and displays works of Rubens, Tiepolo, Carracci and Fragonard, among others.

Do & See

There is plenty to do in the way of culture and entertainment, as well as exciting tours to go on - from regional vineyards and wineries to hiking up Pic St-Loup. Visit the city's many cathedrals (Carre Sainte-Anne is one that stands out with its refurbished interior turned into an art space), walk down the windy streets of the old town, and plan a field trip to the nearby seaside villages.
