Musée national de la porcelaine Adrien Dubouché
Musée national de la porcelaine Adrien Dubouché, National porcelain museum in Limoges, France.
The museum holds 18,000 ceramic works spanning from Antiquity to modern times, with 5,000 pieces displayed in chronologically arranged exhibition spaces.
Founded in the 19th century, this institution became a national museum in 1881 after Adrien Dubouché donated his entire collection to the French state.
