La Cooperative-Collection Ceres Franco

Since 2015, the Cérès Franco Collection has been housed in an exceptional setting: the former wine cooperative cellar of Montolieu. Resolutely international, the Cérès Franco Collection brings together around 2,000 works from the 20th and 21th centuries, some of which are presented each year on a different theme. Brazilian and European naivety, South American popular art, art brut, self-taught, singular, artists from the CoBra movement or the New Figuration, the provenance of the works reflects an eclectic and independent taste for an art situated on the fringes of the major artistic currents. This collection reflects, with a rare coherence, the gaze of an audacious and demanding collector who has turned to intense works. Each year, therefore, a temporary exhibition, to be held from April to November, is organised with a guest curator who looks at this collection while engaging in a dialogue with other institutions or collections.

Musee De L'ecole

Reviewed By irishmick2018 - Dublin, Ireland

Really enjoyed this visit.OK you might say it’s just a school and you would be correct at that but it’s a walk back in time to see what a French school looked and felt like way back. A really interesting little museum very quaint and quite a bit of history to it in relation to world war 2. Well worth a visit

Really worth getting inside, its an impressive castle. Queues can be long for the tickets but move quite fast, be careful when you want to climb the wall as we missed the entrance.
