Amazing discovery in the Old town of Nice. Impressive entrance, stairs, bedroom, chapel, ceiling painting, and collection of musical instruments.

The Palace dates back to the 17th century, and it belonged to one of the most influential families of Nice. In the 1940s, it was bought by the city of Nice, and us turned into a museum. One part of the building houses a collection of musical instruments, which, according to what is stated in the museum, is the second largest in France. I found this statement debatable as the number of instruments was not really high to support such a claim. You can expect to be in the museum for about an hour.

Located in the Old Town this museum is an absolute delight. It is so breathtaking that I have visited it twice. The Palais has been faithfully preserved and there are lots of interesting artifacts. There are information sheets in English and French. The staff are friendly and helpful. Definitely recommend a visit if you are in Nice.

Musée du Palais Lascaris or Palais Lascaris as it more often referred to in Nice, South France (available to visit free on the Nice Museum card). What a building - quite a little gem, with an amazing temporary exhibition on display when I visited. Also known for it's display of musical instruments and some great paintings, even a tapestry if you are a fan. Well worth finding in the heart of Old Nice, if you are visiting the Square and/or markets and want out of the heat! It closes over lunch though, and many museums are shut Mondays.

The museum is hosted in a villa owned by royal family of Savoy. It is now dedicated to 17-18 century musical instruments. Some of them look amazing, like masterpieces of art. We feel that adding speakers with the original sounds of these Baroque instruments would have improved a lot our interest and attention.
