The Museo Civico

An 1839 neoclassical reconstruction of an earlier mansion with an octagonal tower surmounts the facade. Within its park is a miniature zoo and an aviary.

The art collection consists of paintings by such artists as Manet, Cézanne and Matisse. The park offers a superb setting for summertime concerts.
