The best museums Palavas-Les-Flots

On an island, an 18th century military fort houses the Albert-Dubout Museum. The Ballestras Redoubt was dismantled stone by stone and reassembled in the centre of the pond. The museum contains the works of the famous draftsman and his particularly colourful caricatures. Attracted by Palavas as early as 1922, Albert Dubout had the gift of making the comic come out of any thing or situation. In addition to the drawings, the exhibition presents Dubout's personal objects (drawing table, pipe, correspondence with Pagnol and Dard...).

The Car and Train Museum was inaugurated in the summer of 2019. The establishment is built around the Petit train de Palavas, a famous means of locomotion that brought the Montpellier bourgeoisie from the city to the sea until the end of the 1960s. The museum allows you to contemplate one of the authentic locomotives of the time and to discover the history of the coast. Just a few metres from the train, visitors will be able to admire an impressive collection of scale models. Nearly 5,000 vehicles of great renown are presented in 45 showcases. A year-round attraction.
