It's time to push open the door of the refurbished Paul-Dupuy Museum of Precious Arts and discover its precious and curious new museography.
Located in the historic Carmes district, Paul-Dupuy is Toulouse's museum of decorative and graphic arts.
When it was founded in the early 20th century, the museum was housed in a former 17th-century mansion belonging to a Toulouse parliamentarian. It was then a private institution housing the rich collection (objets d'art, paintings, sculptures, furniture, ethnographic objects, drawings, prints, etc.) of art lover Paul Dupuy (1867-1944). Under his will, the site became the property of the town, which opened it to the public on 14 July 1949.
After three years of renovation work, it reopened its doors to the public on 16 November 2022, with a new museography and enhanced collections. You can discover the pre-cinema and cinema collections in the Projection Cabinet, one of the finest collections of early clocks and watches in the Time Cabinet, and the decorative arts collections in the Preciousness Cabinet.
Horaires
Open from Tuesday to Sunday from 10am to 6pm. Closed on Mondays and on January 1st, May 1st and December 25th.
