TOBACCO MUSEUM
A museum housing collections that are unique in Europe, retracing the saga of tobacco, a plant with a universal and controversial destiny
Housed in the Maison Peyrarède, a 17th-century architectural gem, this museum, the only one of its kind in Europe, traces the fascinating history of tobacco. From its Amerindian origins to its controversial role today, discover its sociological, economic, cultural and artistic impact. Works of art, handcrafted machines, snuffboxes and pipes bear witness to human ingenuity. A film and rare items enhance this captivating visit, far removed from any advocacy of smoking! A pipe-shaped amphitheater, featuring short films, completes the experience.
