This lecture invites you to delve into an unsuspected history: that of Mulhouse's collections and their incredible destiny. Maurice Rheims, the great auctioneer and writer, already mentioned Mulhouse as one of the cities most conducive to a taste for rare and precious objects, alongside Lyon, Montpellier and La Rochelle. A mention that may come as a surprise, and yet...
Behind the museums that today form an integral part of the city's cultural identity lies a veritable saga. Over the centuries, Mulhouse's collections have been built up, sometimes in the shadows, often in the midst of turmoil, between passion, drama and renewal.
In this event, we invite you to discover the key moments of this little-known adventure, full of mysteries and revelations, which continues to nourish the unique soul of the people of Mulhouse. You'll discover another face of the town: that of a discreet city deeply marked by a taste for fine objects and art.
