Musée de l'Hôtel de Ville, Amboise, Renaissance museum in Amboise, France

The Hotel Morin Museum showcases collections within a limestone building that combines French Gothic and Italian Renaissance architectural elements from the 16th century.

Pierre Morin, treasurer of King Louis XII, constructed this residence between 1501 and 1505, which later served as a prison, courthouse, and salt warehouse.

The museum displays a range of local artworks, historical artifacts, and includes four thematic sections dedicated to the former postal museum collections.

The museum opens on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays, with special holiday schedules during the Christmas period of December 2024.

The marriage hall maintains its administrative function while displaying art pieces dating back to the 19th century.
