When I visited in January 2024 water was dripping from the ceiling. To catch the rainwater, about a dozen buckets were placed around the first floor greenhoused area (looked like a workshop presentation area with chairs and long tables). The ceilings of multiple rooms on the ground floor were peeling large sections of paint. It made me wonder if these conditions were ideal for the various art mediums on display. I hope they can make some repairs soon! The museum itself isn't very big, walking in there's a main staircase directly to the right after the ticket counter. This leads to the second floor landing with one of the iterations of Rodin's "The Kiss" placed prominently on display. There are a handful of rooms on the second floor and the same on the first, ranging from small to large scale paintings and some sculpture. Easy to go thru in about an hour. Bathrooms are available. Tickets are €10 though you can purchase a museum pass for €15 which grants access to 10 municipal museums in Nice over 4 days. (Local Nice residents can pick up this pass for free with ID and proof of residency.) Guided tour in English is available at 3pm on Saturdays by reservation only for a €6.20 surcharge on top of ticket price.

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 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.
