This museum surprised us with its beautiful exhibitions. In particular, the Picasso war exhibition was fantastic. In the museum they have paintings done by famous painters as well as gorgeous works of art by unknown ones (at least to me). Highly recommend!

Moving and sobering at the courage of the Maqui who would not submit to surrender or the tyranny of the Nazi occupiers. The exhibits were powerful and I was grateful they had explanations in English. I left the museum with some new historical heroes. Viva La Maqui. Thank you to the museum for it's preservation of this important history to France and the world in my humble opinion.

This good value system takes you near vertically up to the Bastille fortification with a small museum and two good restaurants Excellent views over Grenoble and you can just glimpse Mont Blanc over the mountains to your back A good experience is to ride up, indulge in good food looking out over the city and then walk the winding trail back down.

Roman theater which seats 13,000.

We had a greatly enjoyable cruise on the river Rhone with Riviera Travel (30th May - 6th June 2019). We had to climb a steep hill to the Roman amphitheatre. The view was panoramic from the top but it was quite a climb to the highest seats and it was even more difficult to climb back down. My wife had to cling to the fencing and jump down from seat to seat as the steps were so steep. The theatre was built in the first century AD and was one of the largest in the ancient Roman world with a capacity of 11,000 spectators – remarkable.

The Grande Chartreuse, founded by St Bruno in 1084, is a major destination in the Alps. Located in an annexe of the Monastery, the Museum is an insight into their Great Silence and the way of life of these monks. Come and experiment their faith, and try to unravel the mystery of their 900 year history, thanks to this truly monastic setting complete with historical illustrations, artefacts and models of Carthusian monasteries.

I visited the Museum on a Saturday as a day trip from Geneva (I also went to the Chatreuse distillery in Voiron, had lunch in Grenoble, and stopped in Chambery on the way back). This was the unexpected highlight of the day. The Museum explains the life of the Cartesian order (the brothers live in another monastery about 2 km away that you cannot visit) in a way that is clearly accessible to visitors regardless of their familiarity with religious doctrine and ritual. The audio tour was available in English (I can read French, but I don't really understand spoken French). Do as the monks and nuns of the order do and give yourself some time to contemplate the museum and its setting in silence - you won't regret it.

The site of the Caves de la Chartreuse will be renovated from September 2020, for a period of 15 months. The new tourist site will reconcile spaces to be renovated, with strong security constraints, the conservation of the Chartreuse in the longest liqueur cellar in the world and museographic trails completely redesigned. During this period, the tourist site will be closed. The shop and tasting areas will remain open, without prior reservation. The Voiron store is open during lockdown: Open Tuesday to Saturday from 10h to 12h30 and from 14h to 18h30.
