Musée Dom-Robert et de la tapisserie du XXe siècle, Tapestry museum in Sorèze, France.
The Musée Dom-Robert and Museum of Twentieth-Century Tapestry occupies around 1500 square meters within a former school infirmary building. The collection includes wall hangings, drawings, watercolors, and prints created by multiple artists throughout the 1900s.
The museum opened in 2015 to preserve the legacy of Dom Robert, a Benedictine monk whose work shaped tapestry art from 1907 to 1997. His practice merged traditional craft techniques with contemporary artistic expression.
The tapestries displayed here draw heavily from nature and religious themes, showing how weavers translated artistic vision into textile form. Visitors witness how traditional craftsmanship remains central to contemporary art practice.
Audio guides are available in multiple languages, including specialized descriptions for visitors with visual impairments. The exhibition rotates every three years, so returning visitors encounter fresh perspectives on the collection.
The collection extends beyond the founder's work to include pieces by contemporary artists who built upon his influence and explored new directions. This breadth allows visitors to trace the evolution of tapestry art across multiple generations.
