Musée des Beaux-Arts de Morlaix, Fine arts museum in Couvent des Jacobins, Morlaix, France

The museum displays paintings from the Neolithic period to modern times within the walls of a former Dominican monastery in northern Brittany.

Founded in 1889 after the French Revolution, the museum received significant art donations, including 70 works from painter Louis-Marie Baader in 1920.

The collection includes works by Claude Monet, Gustave Courbet, and nineteen paintings from Australian artist John Peter Russell acquired in 1927.

The museum remains closed for renovations, but guided construction site visits are available by reservation in December 2024.

The museum extends to a second location, the Maison à Pondalez, a 16th-century timber-framed house from the golden age of Morlaix.
