Musée Granet

Inaugurated in 1838, the Granet Museum is one of the most prominent museums in the region and holds the prestigious “Musée de France” designation. Operated by the city of Aix-en-Provence, the museum offers visitors over 4,000 m² of exhibition space, primarily dedicated to painting and sculpture.
Nearly 750 works are on display, providing a broad overview of artistic creation-from Egyptian archaeology and early Renaissance art to 19th-century Provençal painting. A major highlight is the museum’s modern and contemporary art collection, enriched by the Meyer donation, which includes works by Alberto Giacometti and numerous paintings tracing the full artistic journey of Paul Cézanne.
Since its major renovation in 2006, the Granet Museum has regularly hosted exhibitions of international significance. Committed to making art and culture accessible to all, the museum actively promotes inclusive public engagement through a dynamic cultural program.
