Fernand Léger National Museum, Modern art museum in Biot, France.

The Fernand Leger National Museum displays over three hundred artworks across multiple exhibition spaces, including paintings, sculptures, mosaics, and ceramics.

Nadia Leger and Georges Bauquier established the museum in 1960 after acquiring Mas Saint Andre villa, which became a national museum through donation in 1969.

The museum presents regular exhibitions connecting Leger's industrial-inspired artworks with contemporary movements through paintings, ceramic works, and architectural designs.

The museum welcomes visitors daily from 10 AM to 5 PM except Tuesdays, with entry fees ranging from 4 to 6.50 euros and free admission for youth under 26.

The building incorporates a monumental mosaic originally designed for Hanover stadium, making it an architectural artwork itself.
