  • Whilst a good walk out if Moulins, worth a visit. The Nureyev exhibition was well curated. All the costumes were interesting.

  • If you have some time to spare, this is a lovely place to see - they have a permanent exhibition of opera costumes throughout he ages and one changing exhibition - beautifully done in a nice setting

  • Beautiful building currently showing Noureev & Carnival de Rio costumes. I unfortunately didn't realise the Rio show meant the fairytale theatre costumes weren't on show & I rushed passed as many kids in the way to find that was all there was!
  • A fantastic museum which revives our history through opera and theater costumes...a trip through the ages, the arts and fashion! You will surely like the permanent exhibition on a great dancer, choregraph and producer : Noureiev ! Please do not forget to enjoy the premices : a former military garnison, saved from destruction thanks to its patrimonial protection. Stairs are splendid !
