Les Musées de Menton
Covering a period of more than 1 million years, the museums of Menton have a remarkable group of museums offering a multidisciplinary approach to art, from prehistory to modern art, including invitations to contemporary artists. Since 2005, thanks to a donation from Severin Wunderman, the town of Menton has presented the largest international collection of works by Jean Cocteau, Prince of Poets.
