Avis
It started raining as we were walking by this museum. As we had no real itinerary to speak of, we decided to duck in and were pleased to find admittance is free. We let the lady at the desk know where we were from and she welcomed us in. While I'm not a huge fan of museums, I always appreciate when they're free. We meandered for a bit, enjoying the various statues. My favorite section was at the back, where the oldest portions of the building can still be seen. Overall, a nice stop if you're just wandering around Dijon.
Despite it being a small museum; only two rooms, it's still super splendid! You can see in the photos the beauty of the statues inside! I really recommend passing by and having a look there. Such a special city; dijon!
We went in by mistake; it was starting to rain and we ran to the entrance for shelter. At the entrance, I was awed by the sculptures, on the door we read entry was free so we went in. Our boy got interested in the pamplets in the reception when the receptionist opened her window, said hallo and that we shouldn't touch anything. My boy doesn't know French and so he just stared at her. A conversation ensues between my husband and receptionist; asking about where we come from, etc. She then opened a new box of assorted cookies, asked our kids (4.5yr & 6.5yr) to pick one, she packs a second and asks my husband and I to also pick one. We say thank and went on further looking around and munching the cookies ( they were soooo good). Am really glad that this "mistake" visit happened.
This is a must see if you are in the area. You’ll be blown away by the scale of the sculpted wall. Small place so you only need a 5-10 mins. Definitely worth stopping by.
Not a large museum, but it's free and near everything else, so definitely worth a visit. The photo I've uploaded shows pretty much the entire museum.
So interesting! But really small. Seems like it's inside an old church
Small museum with a number of sculptures. Free to enter but you can see it all from the doorway.
Very small but very good museum, considering it's free and on the parcour de la chouette, even if it's not an official stop. They have a replica or a model for one of the statues on the sides of the Arc de Triomphe, you get to see it up close and really feel how monumental the whole thing is. The staff knew English and it was easy to navigate, but due to the small proportions and probably the rain, it was very crowded. I'd recommend going if you have time!
