The collection is both scientifically and aesthetically rich, and its didactic value is confirmed by the many visits from schoolchildren and academics.

– The studio where Dany Lartigue created his butterfly compositions and painted an important series of pictures. The museum now presents a selection of his most remarkable paintings.
