Cultural Highlights
Montauban’s cultural landscape is anchored by the Musée Ingres Bourdelle, set within a 17th-century episcopal palace. This collection explores the works of painter Jean-Auguste-Dominique Ingres and sculptor Antoine Bourdelle. The city’s heritage continues at the Théâtre Olympe de Gouges, an 18th-century venue, and the Muséum d’Histoire Naturelle Victor Brun, which houses a vast collection of Quercy fossils and taxidermy. Contemporary arts are represented through the Maison du Crieur, a 16th-century exhibition space, and the modern Eurythmie performance hall.
