The Auguste Grasset Museum in Varzy houses collections from Antiquity to the century, and offers temporary exhibitions.
Several rooms are spread over three levels, around a contemporary hall, where two masterpieces welcome visitors: the equestrian Saint-Eustache, Nevers earthenware dating from 1734, and an Aubusson tapestry illustrating Virgil'sAeneid. From Antiquity to the 19th century, the museum's collections astonish by their eclecticism and artistic disparity, underlining "the encyclopaedic spirit that animated Auguste Grasset in his frenetic quest for the museum piece". Temporary exhibitions occasionally enliven the museum's rooms.
