New National Museum of Monaco – Villa Sauber

The New National Museum of Monaco – Villa Sauber is a contemporary art museum housed in a Belle Époque building with multiple gallery spaces. The museum works alongside a sister venue to present rotating exhibitions of modern and current artistic works.

The property was developed in the early 1900s by a family involved in creating the Monte Carlo Casino. A British painter acquired it in 1904 and used it as both his residence and artistic workspace.

The name comes from a British painter who purchased the property in the early 1900s and established his studio there. This artistic heritage continues to shape the exhibitions displayed within its rooms today.

The museum sits near Larvotto Beach and is easy to reach on foot if you are in that area. The layout is straightforward with clear paths through the gallery spaces.

From 1972 to 2008, one wing of the house displayed an extensive collection of handmade dolls to the public. This unexpected focus was a reminder of how museum spaces can shift their purpose over time.
