Musée Picasso is an art museum devoted to the works of Pablo Picasso. It is located in Antibes in…read morethe beautiful Chateau Grimaldi, which has a great seaside location. Not just housing Picasso's works, it also was his home for six months in 1946. I liked my experience at this museum, though I would attribute it more to its idyllic location than the art content. I did like many of the Picasso sculptures housed here, but found the overall collection on the slight side if you are looking to see a large number of Picasso pieces here. This was evident as the museum supplemented the space with pieces from other artists. I do think it is worth a visit if you are doing a day trip to Antibes. There is a public market (Marche Provencal) nearby that would make for a good place to visit before or after the museum.

We enjoyed our visit and took tons of pics! I hadn't had a chance to post but we went a few months…read moreago and we l/we had a wonderful time visiting the Musee Picasso and also love Antibes! Some of the artwork was a little " interesting" the woman pieces especially.... We would probably visit again if we came back since we love the area and the art. Enjoy!

Just amazing if you like this painter. While the most…read moreimportant work of this artist are shown elsewhere, there is a lot to discover here. The tour of this museum will help better understand the genesis of his paintings and his life in general. The displays are not extravagant and the whole museum tour can be done in 2 hours . Again if you are in Nice, and would like to do something more cultural than lie down on the beach, this is a good destination.

Picturesque museum in the heart of Nice that is Obviously dedicated to the works of Matisse. I was…read moresurprised to see the museum carried extensive collection of paper fragments that he cut in his later modernist years. The museum even had interesting items like handwritten payroll stubs for Matisse's assistant who may have also been his paramour.

This museum taught me that perhaps modern art isn't exactly my muse. It's a good museum, but I've…read morebeen to better. I can't say I was particularly inspired by a lot of the art. Best room is with the artist who's fascinated with the vibrant blue and women using their bodies to paint on canvases. Everything is translated into multiple languages. Overall it deals with modern Italian art from the 1960-70s. Lots of films in Italian.

Maybe I don't appreciate modern art or I'm not cultured enough, but this was one of my least…read morefavorite museums I've been to. I've been to the Tate Modern, San Francisco MoMa, and Bilbao Guggenheim, and I found the art in this place just too bizarre for my taste. There were 3 floors of exhibits and it was enough for me - the first floor was a temporary exhibit and was so strange. There was a giant " 1-bedroom " apartment exhibit that looked like someone was moving in or out of their apartment and didn't unpack with water bottles and other trash on top of water bottles. There were blankets in dry cleaning bags, and other ordinary pieces you'd find just hung or laying on the floor. The other exhibits were slightly less weird, but there were just a lot of canvases or fabrics painted or dyed in all one color. The Yves Klein stuff all in blue was interesting and very colorful. But other things like a rope died different colors, a pile of rocks, and other things that I could have made myself was not impressive. Maybe if there was an audio guide that explained things better, it would be have been more interesting but I spent an hour in there and had enough. I've never heard more snickering in a museum in my life. The entrance fee is 10€ but free for students, but I would have just preferred to get a coffee something instead. No offense to those who like really modern art, but this was just not for me. Plan to spend 1-1.5 hours here, it's not super big. It was raining and cold in Nice when we went, so we didn't feel like we wasted a good day outside, but this would not be my first choice of things to do in Nice.

Avoid this crummy museum! The security guards are disrespectful to visitors. The guards search…read moreall over your clothing several times over with metal detectors . Belt buckles, pens, and wristwatches will excite the arrogant security guards who will then feel all over your body! There are long lines to enter the museum. The tickets are too expensive. I was charged to get in, but I noticed that some people have posted that the museum is free. I may have been scammed by the employees. Crummy Service. Awful Value for the expensive tickets. Please avoid the Musée Masséna!

Not only is the view from the outside of the house or looking at the beach across the street…read moreamazing, the inside is so cool too. And just so you know, the art work sucks, sorry! Not my style, I was hoping for more fake furniture styled in how the family once styled it and there is some, but that some is small lol. It is only downstairs too. BUT this place is free so just go. That is if you are like me, and like to go see architecture, you will love it, so I stuck it out and did all floors. You can snap photos of anything you like as well, unlike half and half of Euopean museums where you are not sure if you can take photos, but here you can! I went when it was closed but the locals all play around the roundabout and have conversations on the benches provided. The entrey is in the back of the house so enter the side area, FACING the house, on the left.

This is a beautiful and gorgeous museum in Nice with free admission. Located by the airport, this…read moremuseum is not to be missed. The space is really well designed and just by itself it gives you a really relaxed "zen" oriental feeling. The expositions here are rotating so check ahead on what's being offered but they are all of great quality. You can also participate in a traditional tea ceremony for 10 euros, you have to make a reservation for that. For a free admission you have nothing to lose and you will be amazed by the atmosphere and quality of displays.
