This is a superb small museum with some outstanding works by Chagall. His vivid paintings come to life in the museum, which should be a top site to visit if you are in Nice. We took a taxi there from our hotel as it is somewhat off the beaten track. We waited and waited at the taxi stand after our visit, but no one showed up, so we finally called an Uber, which came right away. I note this because it is a fairly long walk to trams and trains.

I was at museum at 9.45 reaching it by unpleasant uphill way. I was already happy that I was able to came here all long way from J Med av. There already was staying group of 10 French tourists. I moved on the line. Staff appeared 10 min before opening and create a line direction with the ribbons - which is good. Suddenly group from the bus with russian tourists arrived almost at 10. Their guide was not sure if staff will permit them enter earlier than first people in the line, he spoke with the staff and received a permission. But firsts people came also entered almost 5 min later, it was nice. The exhibition is not big, but it is very good and impressive. I really enjoyed my visit. I liked more artworks in bright spacious rooms. It is really worth to see. My advice - just came 10-15 min before opening and nothing will ruin your mood and impressions from museum.

This is a fantastic museum, assuming you are patient. We showed up at 12:35 p.m. and were told the ticket office was closed. We returned at 1:45 p.m. and were permitted in at exactly 2:00 p.m. The paintings are superb and well worth the €8 per person. Upon exiting there was a long line to enter, as preference is given to group tours.

While the security to enter is a bit of a hassle. Chagall was such a wonderful artist that this museum is a must when in Nice. I was a bit saddened not to see more works on display, however, I will trust that France knows how to handle the works of the great artists. Don't forget to see the stained glass windows.

Make sure you visit this museum while in Nice and be sure to watch the short video of his life. It was very informative. The museum has a special exhibit going on right now that we unfortunately missed. However; the permanent collection did not disappoint. Stunning work mainly of biblical subjects. Definitely check out if you are a Chagall fan.

This was my favorite museum of all. Starting with seeing the fabulous neighborhood it's in, to looking at Chagall's paintings, which tell the story he wanted to tell of a historical time that resonates now. I was blown away by the film with music that had played in my home as a child and seeing how sensitive and lovely the artist. I highly recommend visiting it.

What a fabulous museum - full of a lifetime of Chagall's beautiful paintings and good history of his life from early to late years - a complete presentation. The Biblical paintings were glorious, and many others works evoking his youth in Russia and later years in France and US and during the war years--simply spectacular. The museum has limited hours--morning 10:00 to noon, then two hour closure, then opens again at 2:00 - but there is a charming outdoor cafe there (we were there in the summer) with a friendly staff and good food in the shade - a perfect place to pass time until opening.

The Chagall museum is a wonderful way to spend an afternoon when visiting the south of France. It’s located in a beautiful neighborhood. the cafe is located in the surrounding garden and is a great place to relax and have lunch. You can download an app onto your smartphone and scan codes next to most of the paintings to hear information about the paintings and artist in English I loved loved loved this museum. It is not to be missed when visiting the south of France. I would definitely go back again.

The Old Testament paintings are incredible. We joined in a guided tour and really benefited from the insights of the curator. We lined up a little before the post-lunch 2 pm reopening and while there was a bit of a wait we entered within a reasonable time. There was an even longer line outside when we left so I’m glad we arrived when we did. The museum is not very large so I am sure they are careful to limit the number of people inside at one time. There are 2 bag checks and a metal detector to enter. No food or drinks allowed inside or in your bag so plan accordingly. There was a small kiosk before the final entrance door where you could leave your water bottle.

Expected a crowd. Very well managed, so there was plenty of space to see the pictures. Queuing was fine for tickets and small queue at Security. Good idea to buy the guidebook. Restaurant in the garden was very pleasant. And then there are the Chagall…
