Musée Louis Vouland, Furniture museum in Avignon, France
The Louis Vouland Museum occupies a 19th-century mansion, displaying decorative arts collections including furniture, ceramics, porcelain, and tapestries from the 17th and 18th centuries.
Industrialist Louis Vouland acquired the mansion in 1927 and assembled an extensive collection through purchases at Hotel Drouot auctions before his death in 1973.
The museum exhibits rare examples of Provencal paintings alongside furniture pieces from renowned craftsmen like Migeon, Ellaume, and Tuart, representing French decorative arts traditions.
Located at 17 rue Victor Hugo, the museum charges 6 euros for regular admission and 4 euros for reduced rates, opening Tuesday through Sunday.
The museum garden serves as a bird sanctuary managed by the Bird Protection League, combining natural preservation with cultural heritage preservation.
