There are unusual places... and then there are unusual things... and the worst part is when you meet an unusual place entirely made up of unusual things! Well, this is the case with the Joseph Denais Museum!
It is a cabinet of curiosities, the result of the dreams of a curious gentleman, and curious about everything! A humanist as we understood him in the 19th century and at the beginning of the 20th century, a historian, a journalist, he has built up an extraordinary collection!
A delight for lovers of fine arts, Egyptian and Mediterranean archaeology, ethnography, natural history, encyclopedic collections...
In addition, the abundance and diversity of the approximately 7,000 objects in the Denais collection is extremely well documented.
