Mougins Museum of Classical Art

Mougins, France

The Mougins Museum of Classical Art is an art museum located in Mougins, France. Established by Christian Levett, a British businessman and collector, it opened in April 2011. Levett decided to put the objects on display because his collection was mounting up in storage and he realised that many of them were of interest to the public. The Musée d’Art Classique de Mougins – MACM was created by remodelling a 400m² medieval residence to house his collection. The interior was entirely renovated to display the collection and the façade remains in its original style. The collection includes works by artists who spent time in Mougins such as Francis Picabia, Jean Cocteau and Pablo Picasso.
