Located on the heights of Cannes’ historic district, the Museum of World Explorations, formerly known as the Musée de la Castre, invites you on a journey through primitive art, Orientalism, and Antiquity. Temporary exhibitions also on display.
Mediterranean and Oriental antiquities, fine arts (including Artemisia Gentileschi's painting Judith and Holofernes), the Orientalist collection, the arts of Qajar Iran, the primitive arts of Oceania, the Americas, Asia and Africa, and musical instruments from around the world, are highlighted in a twofold itinerary that blends the vision of the Western explorer with indigenous contextualisations, thus offering a multiplicity of views on the world.
