Since 1952 one can find the Musée de la Castre in the earlier Castle of Cannes. Exotic cultures are respected with great influences from the Pacific Islands, pre-Columbus North America, the Marquesas Islands, ancient Egyptian, ancient Mediterranean, and Southeast Asia. Sculptures, paintings and decorative arts and even a section on ethnography, including relics and pieces from across the globe! The Castle itself is of great interest, now a historic monument which was originally built during the 11th and 12th centuries on top of the hill of Le Suquet as protection for the harbour and bordering coast.

Cannes Musée de la Castre is a worthwhile stop, even if you're not an art of history buff, even the trip to castle is noteworthy. Be sure to plan your trip to Cannes as soon as possible. Start with booking your accommodation in one of the outstanding Cannes hotels.
