Nestled in a complete verdant space, the “Chartreuse de Valbonne” unfolds its atypical architecture and proudly displays its multicoloured tiles, with a Burgundian trace. Founded in the 13th century, it occupies the small valley within the beautiful forest of Valbonne which still contains today rare essences in Provence. Though before, this small “oasis” was a swampy valley only. The efforts and patience of a dozen monks were needed to clear and cleanse the area, before the vaults of this edifice could be raised. The place then became the vallis bona, where the name Valbonne derives from. It has been listed as a historical monument since 1959, and the Charterhouse kept the authenticity of its monastic cells from its centuries of history, and they are now re-established for our visitors with the utmost fidelity. Around the Charterhouse, come and wander through its interpretive trail leading you to the forest, while bringing a well sought-after freshness during the summer.

Discover an exceptional collection of figurative paintings from Post-Impressionism to the present day, featuring masterpieces by some of the greatest modern painters: Renoir, Matisse, Bonnard, Signac, Marquet, Valadon, Van Dongen... Musée Albert-André: the museum of friendship. The first provincial museum of modern art It was the painter Albert André (1869-1954) who, when he became curator in 1917, turned the encyclopedic museum in Bagnols-sur-Cèze into the first museum of contemporary art in France. Grenoble and Saint-Tropez soon followed suit. Described as a museum of friendship, the collection was enriched by donations from painters who were friends of the curator. The masters Renoir and Monet gave him the expected support, as did the artists of his generation: Georges D'Espagnat, Louis Valtat, Jean Puy... The "young painters" of the 1950s From the 1950s onwards, the "Jeune Peinture" movement advocated a return to figuration. The museum is particularly rich in evidence of this new figurative wave: Bardone, Génis, Guiramand combine tradition and modernity in the jubilation of color, soon followed by Lesieur, Collomb, Lorjou, Minaux, Brasilier, Petit, Parsus, Rodde and more recently by Cayol, Cottavoz, Maly, Steiner... The George Besson collection What all these artists have in common is their close relationship with art critic George Besson, who was an ardent supporter of their work, notably in Les Lettres françaises. In the evening of his life, George Besson, in agreement with his wife, donated his collection to the French state, with part of it deposited in Bagnols-sur-Cèze. As a result, the Musée de l'Amitié is proud to present a number of emblematic masterpieces of twentieth-century art, including Marquet's Le 14 juillet au Havre, Matisse's La fenêtre ouverte à Nice, Bonnard's Bouquet de fleurs des champs and Van Dongen's Portrait d'Adèle Besson.
