At night, visit museums and beautiful courtyards. The visitors in the Church played the organ, fell asleep three times, and knew where the players were sitting.

When I went there, I couldn't find the entrance. I thought it was closed. The exhibits in it are not so bad as those in Paris

Info

The building where the museum is located was built in 1309. It used to be a monastery with Gothic style. After the French Revolution, the monastery was secularized and converted into a museum in 1795. It is one of the oldest museums in France (second only to the Louvre), collecting many sculptures and paintings from the Middle Ages to the early 20th century. There are two very beautiful corridors in the garden. The museum houses Roman stone tools, as well as works by Rubens, Delacroix and Toulouse Lautrec.

Address: 21 rue de Metz, 31000 Toulouse

It's a very nice Museum, not very big, but surprisingly rich in content. The whole building garden is very beautiful, worth seeing, and it won't take long

The contents of the exhibition are still worth seeing, but the introduction of all the exhibits is in French. There is no English. I am still a big test for the French laborious, but there is no charge. You can go and have a look

I went there on Thursday, and even met with free tickets (I'm a student ticket, I'm not sure that regular tickets are also free). The museum is very small. I strolled around slowly and finished reading it in less than an hour. Not much, but I like it.

Although I can't understand it, the galleries in it are still in the style of Louvre

After three months in Toulouse, I really like this city. It's not big. The cities with rivers are all alive. Augustine Museum often goes there. It's quiet. Take a rest in the corridor and look at the ancient sculptures. My heart will be quiet.

Transformed in the old monastery, the building itself is worth appreciating. The exhibition hall design of the Roman column is impressive, with beautiful sculpture. The oil painting should be classical style. The old church has sarcophagus and religious sculpture.

I didn't buy a ticket to see the part of the charge. I went in and visited it and came out. I feel it's very common. Sometimes there are paintings, exhibitions, sculptures and so on
