A museum dedicated to photography, exploring technological developments from the first camera to the smartphone.

As Chalon-sur-Saône is the birthplace of Nicéphore Niépce, the inventor of photography, it's only natural that he should be honored here. The museum that bears his name is a must-see. Housed since 1972 in the former Hôtel des Messageries royales, it preserves treasures that are unique in the world. Here, you can step back in time to admire works of all kinds and discover technological developments, from the first camera to today's smartphone. The museum also showcases contemporary photography through a number of temporary exhibitions.

Une partie permanente retrace l'histoire de la photographie, en exposant les appareils et en expliquant leur fonctionnement. Très intéressant pour les enfants également. La partie d'expositions temporaires est généralement très intéressante.
pour ne rien gâcher, l'entrée au musée est gratuite.

An exquisite collection of material, equipment and techniques that traces the history of photography. From the earliest forms of photography, using glass panels and crude light boxes to more modern equipment, use of colour, styles and difference materials.
Beautiful work showcasing the changes in cameras, films, fashion photography, magazine and nature styles.. If you’re interested in photography, museum is not to be missed..
Entry is free.
