Traveler reviews
Mossa Deck
★★★★★4 months agoPetit passage au Musée de la Création Franche et vraie surprise. Les œuvres sont originales et sortent vraiment de l’ordinaire. On se laisse facilement prendre par les détails et l’imagination des artistes. Une visite courte mais marquante. Je recommande.

★★★★★9 years agoUne belle découverte d oeuvres surprenantes parfois fascinantes d artistes qui pour la plupart n'ont pas "appris" l'art. Des expositions temporaires et une exposition permanente dans un lieu, une ancienne grande maison, chaleureux et calme. Un musée aussi bien pour les petits et gratuit pour tous.
