Musée de l'artillerie, Military museum in Draguignan, France

The Musée de l'artillerie is a military museum in Draguignan that displays cannons, ammunition, uniforms, and equipment from different periods. The collection spans from the Middle Ages to the present day and shows how artillery technology changed over time.

A first arms conservatory was set up in Paris in 1685 by Louis de Crevant, duc d'Humières, Grand Master of the Artillery. In 1796 the artillery committee gathered the Grand Master's collections and those of provincial arsenals at Saint-Thomas d'Aquin; this became the Musée de l'Artillerie, moved to Les Invalides and renamed Musée de l'Armée in 1905. After 1870 a conservatory at the Fontainebleau artillery school grew until 1940, then the collections passed through Idar-Oberstein and Châlons-sur-Marne. When the Artillery School moved to Draguignan in 1976, a museum was created from these dispersed collections, inaugurated on 5 June 1982 and renamed Musée de l'Artillerie in 2000.

The museum keeps the standards of disbanded regiments and a memorial space where the names of battles are engraved in gold letters on regimental flags, alongside artillerymen who died for France. It also runs temporary exhibitions, study days and conferences, and takes part in the European Heritage Days and the Night of Museums.

The museum sits within the Écoles militaires de Draguignan in the Var. A renovation and extension in 2013 added a visitor car park and a footbridge, improving access for people with reduced mobility. Entry is free.

The memorial space inside the museum carries the names of battles painted in gold letters on regimental banners, alongside the names of artillerymen who died for France; banners of several disbanded regiments are kept there. Among the cannons, the museum holds prototype No. 6, built in 1896 for the 75 mm model 1897 gun.
