Augustinian Museum

This art museum houses a collection of paintings and sculptures from the Middle Ages until the early 20th century. Paintings are collected from all over France, and sculptures reflect the Occitan culture of the region, which is particularly strongly influenced by Romanesque sculpture. The building in which the museum is located, is quite interesting. It has been classified as a historical monument in 1840, more building was constructed in 1309 in the Gothic style, and to the French Revolution, there was a monastery of the Augustinian. It was secularized in 1793, and two years later, a little later, the Louvre, the museum opened to the public. He became one of the oldest museums in France.
