Musée d'Art et d'Industrie de Saint-Étienne

The Musée d'Art et d'Industrie spans across four floors, presenting collections of weapons, ribbons, and cycles through permanent and temporary exhibitions.

Established in 1889, the museum occupies a former administrative building that was transformed into an arts palace housing both the museum and municipal library.

The museum maintains three main collections focusing on arms manufacturing, ribbon production, and bicycle creation, representing Saint-Étienne's industrial expertise.

Located at 2 Place Louis Comte, the museum provides wheelchair access and offers online ticket purchases for visitors throughout the year.
