Paul-Raymond Museum, Art museum in Pont-Saint-Esprit, France.

The Paul-Raymond Museum occupied a building constructed between 1832 and 1833, displaying paintings, drawings, prints, posters, and archaeological artifacts from the region.

Named after physician and prehistorian Paul Raymond (1859-1944), the municipal museum opened its doors to the public in 1980 in the former City Hall.

The institution housed works by Russian figurative painter Benn (1905-1989) alongside extensive collections related to local and regional history of Languedoc-Roussillon.

The museum's annual visitor numbers fluctuated significantly, ranging from 882 visitors in 2003 to a peak of 2,400 visitors in 2007.

Following its closure in 2015, the museum's collections were transferred to the Sacred Art Museum of Gard in Pont-Saint-Esprit, ensuring their preservation.
