The Paul Dupuy museum
The "Cabinet des Objets d'Art" is divided into several sections: gold pieces, pottery, glass, ironwork, textiles (from the sumptuous facings of the XIVth century Cordeliers to the clothing of ordinary people and the bourgeoisie, furniture (a careful reconstruction of a Jesuit pharmacy), wood carvings and the remarkable collection of Edouard Gélis clocks and watches known all over the world, as well as a rare collection of weaponry and musical instruments.
We should also mention the "cabinets" devoted to meteorology, coins and seals. The "cabinet" of graphic arts (drawings, engraving and posters) is particularly well endowed with works by artists from Toulouse and Languedoc.
