A unique museum at the foot of the Butte Montmartre, housed in a steel-framed hall built in 1868 by a pupil of Baltard. The museum's history began as a covered market before it was transformed into a museum in 1986, thanks to the impetus of collector Max Fourny.
Since then, it has become a veritable temple to outsider art, hosting exhibitions of the most unexpected and unusual creations. Among its highlights, the 1995 exhibition"Art Brut et Compagnie" laid the foundations for its cultural programming. The museum also houses an impressive permanent collection of naive art, based on commissions and donations, focusing on the 1970s.
THE must-see cultural venue for those seeking to discover art forms off the beaten track. Want to drop in?
