National center for theatrical costume and design, Fashion museum in Moulins, France

The National Center for Theatrical Costume and Design occupies a restored building with three monumental staircases and specialized textile restoration rooms on the ground floor.

The center opened in 2006 inside former cavalry barracks from Louis XV era, following restoration work by architect François Voinchet after World War II damage.

The museum preserves over 10,000 costumes from French institutions, including the Paris Opera and Comédie Française, along with the complete Nureyev collection of 70 costumes.

Museum admission costs 9 euros for adults and includes access to exhibition halls, documentation center, and an auditorium that seats 100 visitors.

The facility maintains large mobile sliding cabinets in a dedicated storage building designed to protect and organize thousands of theatrical garments.
