Visitor comments
- "Worth an our if you are an art lover. Based in what was a house and still contains some furniture and wall decorations though not set up like a British stately home. Smallish collection over three floors. Lift available. Couple of paintings by people like Sisley, Vincent and Degas for post impressionist period." - Trip Advisor
- "We enjoyed the the Musee Angladon. By far the best of several places we visited in Avignon. It has a solid collection, nothing amazing but all good." - Trip Advisor
- "If you are an art lover & find yourself in Avignon don't miss out on visiting this charming little museum tucked away in a back street close to Tourist Information. Raoul Dufy exhibition was featuring when we visited but there are Picasso's, Degas, Cezanne's Van Gogh's amongst many others to see. Don't miss it." - Trip Advisor
