Musee Fabre is worth a visit if only for the wonderful collection of Dutch art. But, linger and explore as it offers much, much, more.

A varied and ecclectic collection of art with something for everyone. We particularly enjoyed the extensive range by Dutch artists. Signage was not good and it was easy to get lost around the maze of corridors and interconnecting rooms. Am sure there was much we missed in this "Tardis like" building. Having recently undergone a major refurbishment it is a... More

The Musee Fabre is worth a visit for its collection. The Flemish masters are all around and many of the rooms are of interest. As far as I am concerned the permanent exhibition of Pierre Soulages is what makes Musee Fabre a MUST SEE when you are in Montpellier and makes me give an Excellent rating. The room where Soulages...

If you like Pierre Soulage work of art, do not miss the Musee Fabre which displays numbers of his paintings from all his various periods. Some other quite interesting local painters are on display

I learned a lot from the information cards, available in almost every room in French and English. There is also some modern art, which was stimulating and new. Most of... More

This is a must for art lovers. The museum is well designed and by the standards of provincial cities contains a rich array of artworks - from the Renaissance to the contemporary period. As one who loves impressionist art I was taken by the works of Jean Millet and Eugene Delacroix. The collection of Dutch masters is also very impressive.... More

This place is huge. If you want Impressionists, go elsewhere, but there are many interesting works here from the 16 to 1800s.
