A museum of passing interest
Sep 2019
Mostly not my cup of tea apart from the paintings. if you are into clocks and porcelain then this may suit you. The building, especially its courtyard was the most interesting part of this museum for me. If you do not read French then you will have trouble understanding the labels.

FASCINATING collection of clocks and watches
Nov 2018 • Couples
The Paul Dupuy museum is quite small with some interesting exhibits on early pharmacology. However, it has a very impressive collection of clocks, watches, and devices for measuring time dating from the early 1200’s. We took a tour which was entirely in French and got by with our limited French (recommended that you have a basic understanding of spoken French). Even without the tour, the exhibits were so interesting we returned a second time. Highly recommended if you have any interest in the development of clocks, watches etc. I tagged along with my wife and was happy I did.

Varied collection of items from many clocks & early watches plus paintings. The standout item for me was the preserved shop display of pharmacy products. The wooden display filled a whole wall, truely amazing.

Kind of went by accident, but great historical porcelain from Toulouse and the watches and clock collections were outstanding. 16th century up tp early 20th. Very beautiful specimens.
The Jesuit Apothecary is amazing.

Small museum but with an extraordinary collection of watches from different period times. Definitely worth a visit if you're in Toulouse.

Found this almost by accident looking for somewhere else. A small and somewhat specialist collection but great fun. Definitely worth a visit.

Pleasantly surprised by this small museum
Dec 2017 • Solo
Went here on the first Sunday of the month for free admission, and glad I did. I saw the whole thing in about an hour but what collection they did have was interesting. The Jesuit pharmacie was nice but not a lot of explanation with it. The clocks were really interesting to me, with a lot of explanations and writings, and was a large portion of the museum. It would be nice to have at least some options for English explanations, though I was able to get by with my French. I'd recommend for a quick viewing if you have an hour or two to kill.
