It was so surprising to find so many paintings by Picasso in such a small town and I particularly enjoyed seeing his pottery. More

For a small town museum this offers world class exhibitions with many major artists represented well.Every two years it mounts an exhibition of prominent artists that then travels far after the first showing in this small but well designed museum. The publications of the exhibitions are of major importance also all well researched. More

Loved the three Joan Miro's and the ceramic collection donated by Pablo Picasso after he attended a Ceret pottery workshop. I wondered why all the attendants were women as the next museum we went in Montpellier they were all men? Perhaps the women were volunteers. More

I first heard of this Museum when I was living in Paris and tracing work of Matisse in France. A train and a bus later I was there. Museum exceeded all expectations of a small town museum....but when Picasso founds a Museum..... Do check their website for exhibits, talks, hours to avoid "just missing" what you'd most want to experience.... More

Céret is a lovely picturesque town about a 30 minute drive from Perpignan. If you arriving by car check out the street plan as there are a number of one way streets to confuse you.
