A beautiful museum, in a beautiful building (an old abbey) which borders the Place des Terreaux, close to the Opera de Lyon and the City Hall.
Access to the museum, through a large arcaded courtyard, in the center of which sits a fountain, in a flowery decor, punctuated with benches and some sculptures.
The entrance to the museum is a bit expensive, for my taste (8 , full price). You can leave your clothes in the cloakroom (free).
The visit begins with the old chapel of the abbey, which brings together a very beautiful collection of sculptures, including a series of works by Rodin. We also admire some paintings (including charcoals).
Alas, for me, I did not have time to visit the second floor of the museum ...
