A veritable goldmine for lovers of Toulouse, this museum invites you on a journey into the city’s past through an array of objects brought together by the Toulousains de Toulouse Association since 1907.
The Museum of Old Toulouse presents objects that evoke the history of the city from Antiquity to the XX Century in the Hôtel Dumay, a magnificent Renaissance building.
The exhibition rooms have been set up like small cosy salons of the XVIII Century that give the venue its old-fashioned charm. Each room deals with a specific theme: evolution of the city, ancient institutions, local artists, monuments that have vanished, customs...
We can delve into the daily life of the Toulousains of the past in a very concrete way thanks to a presentation of dress, tableware and other everyday objects.
Members of the association know how to enliven the visit with little anecdotes that they are happy to share.
