This beautiful building whose architecture and gates are much-admired was built from 1735 to 1744, after the plans of the architect J.P. Galzot. The latter who was from Besancon was naturally inspired by Saint-Jacques Hospital to draw the plans for «l’Hotel-Dieu» of Lons-le-Saunier.

Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 361 reviews
The Departmental Courbet museum presents the life and work of Gustave Courbet, realistic painter from Ornans, through a rich permanent exhibition of over 70 works. The permanent collection evokes Ornans to Paris, his life, the aesthetic revolution he led, artistic circles he frequented, and political and social commitments. The museum organizes two temporary exhibitions each year and offers many activities: concerts, storytelling, shows, conferences, etc., detailed in our "cultural programming" quarterly.

This museum shows one of the most comprehensive collections of Courbet’s works, including drawings and engravings. Situated on the Loue, located in the heart of Ornans where Courbet was born, raised and lived off and on for a good part of his life, the museum gives the visitor a solid grounding in his work. The modern installation is airy and bright. The wall plaques provide context and for those who read French and can decipher Courbet’s spidery handwriting, a generous sampling of his letters presents a good sense of how important the natural world of Ornans was as an inspiration. Ornans may be a little off the beaten path but the trip is well worth the time. Plus the twisting road down into the narrow valley of the Loue in which Ornans sits is an experience in itself.
