A city museum, Maison Ravier has retained its old-world charm and houses a collection dedicated to Auguste Ravier, precursor of Impressionism, and his painter friends. It obtained the “Maison des Illustres” label from the Ministry of Culture.
This residence from the beginning of the 3th century, located in the heart of the old town, is remarkable for the elegance of its proportions: it is accessed through an authentic porch with porte-cochère which asserts its character. A XNUMX-sided attic roof pierced with windows, covered with scale tiles like the Dauphinoise houses of the region, and four rows of sponge cakes at its base, testify to the affluence of the owners behind this construction.
Located on the heights of the city, the terrace planted with lime trees and its gardens offer a surprising panorama from this privileged environment: the Bugey and Chartreuse mountains, the Belledonne and Vercors ranges.
