musee fabre印象

On the oil painting side, has a bit of everything, with some focus on local artists who gained fame, such as Cabanel and Bazille. Also a few sculptures.After the Languedoc sections, the most interesting rooms might be those devoted to Delacroix, and the Impressionists. While there are no superstar works, this is a good collection.The temporary exhibit is on Viallat, a contemporary French artist. It was not to my taste, most of the works being quite similar to the others, plus some ropes and knots, which I didn't get at all.

Recommended for painters' lovers. It's big, the works displayed are amazing, it does take time to visit it all, so it's highly recommended to have a good meal right before you enter.I do think it's expensive for a "ville" museum.

An hour or two at the Fabre in between coffee and aperitifs is always worthwhile.If the temporary exhibition doesn't appeal (Viallat this summer, admittedly not to everyone's taste) there is the opportunity to browse through the more traditional galleries.The admission is good value and the staff are very helpful and friendly.

The Fabre Musuem is housed in a very beautiful old building which is delightful to wander through. Staff at entry are friendly and helpful and the permanent collection is large and interesting. Difficult to cover in a day - certainly worth a visit if you are in Montpellier.

I was in Montpellier visiting a friend but, as she had to go to class all morning, I went to the Musee Fabre on my own. Probably one of the best experiences I've had in an art gallery (I don't know too much about art). It is really huge, nicely laid out, the paintings were interesting and the audioguide was very impressive. Despite the fact that my French is extremely limited (practically non-existent) and few people in Montpellier, including those working at the museum, speak English, everyone was very friendly. And the place was practically empty! Really great gallery.

This is a fairly large fine Arts Museum located in what appears to be an old palace.The good news is that the place is modern inside ,the works well displayed and the staff pleasant.Unfortunately the quality of the art works displayed is not on par with their setting.There is a large quantity of paintings and a few artists such as Bazille are well represented .Yet most of the collection is second rate for a regional museum of this type in France.The visit starts downstairs and gradually gets you to the top floor in chronological order of artists.Some nice Flemish paintings at the start but downhill from there.It may be easier on the legs to do the visit in reverse.

Really worth a trip to this Museum - very informative and enjoyable visit. Airy rooms, huge windows. Particularly liked the sculpture gallery.

Something completely unexpected. I was own my own visiting that wonderful and fine collection of art, and that's a really strange experience these days. Difficult to spend less than 2 hours there. The staff is helpful and friendly. Not to miss the collection of modernist art. You can discover a few unknown painters.

This is a real find in the heart of the city and it has some wonderful artworks many by well known artists as well as those lesser known to overseas visiter's but which are still of merit and highly regarded by the French. The building is beautiful and it was so easy to get around and there were no crowds! In fact on my visit hardly anyone there.Allow a visit of around 2 hours and you can see most of the works and still (weather permitting) go outside and sit in one of Montpellier's cafes in the park opposite and watch the world or a lot of the Montpellier's residents (mainly with their cute little dogs), walk by.

This is a wonderful museum for those who appreciate art- bear in mind though, that there is a lot to see, so make sure you plan what to visit and prioritise accordingly. Sometimes they also host temporary displays and special exhibits, so do check those out.Staff are friendly, and the gallery is easy to find.
