Musée Gassendi is open to visitors both on and off-site. In the 17th-century building, the diversity of the art and science collections reflects the region’s natural and heritage treasures, alongside works by Mark Dion, Joan Foncuberta, Andy Goldsworthy... In the mountains, the Contemporary Art Collection can be explored on foot within the Unesco Geopark of Haute-Provence.
