Château d'Oiron, Art museum in Oiron, France.

The Renaissance-era Château d'Oiron features extensive galleries across multiple floors, displaying contemporary art collections within its stone walls and decorated halls.

The Gouffier family received this land from the French monarchy during the 15th century as recognition for their support in the Hundred Years War.

The museum merges historical architecture with modern art installations, creating a dialogue between traditional castle features and current artistic expressions.

Visitors can explore the château daily from 10:30 AM to 6:30 PM during summer months and until 5:30 PM in winter, with closures on major holidays.

Daniel Spoerri's permanent exhibition combines unexpected elements like mannequin parts, antique weapons, and scuba gear throughout the grand hall.
