Prieure du Vieux-Logis Museum

Traditional villa housing art from the Middle Ages

featured in Sights & Sites

This priory owned by Father Lemerre was converted into a museum at the end of the Second World War and houses his collection of objets d'art from the late Middle Ages and early modern period including French furniture, glass, sculptures and religious paintings.

The collection has objects dating from the 14th to the 17th centuries in 13 rooms, including a Gothic chamber, another one with Renaissance furniture and a kitchen with utensils from different periods. There is also a chapel, an oratory and a sacristy.

The Niçoise garden completes this great example of a traditional villa recreating a 15th-century interior.
