The former chapel of the Ursuline convent now serves as a center for storage, research, restoration, and heritage studies.
The Artothèque houses the collections that are not permanently exhibited in the other museums of the city of Mons.
In addition to its mission of preservation, this place also plays a significant role in promoting Mons' heritage by making it virtually accessible and shedding light on the "hidden" professions within museums.
The Artothèque takes you behind the scenes of the museums.
Enjoy an exclusive visit to the "backstage" of museum collections accompanied by a heritage curator: reserves, restoration, and digitization workshops—these places will no longer hold any secrets for you!
