Ursuline Museum

TIME : 2016/2/19 4:10:00

Founded by Ursuline nuns in 1639, this museum has a fine collection of textiles, ceramics, books and prints related to Catholicism. Frescoes adorn the adjacent chapel. Nearby, Rue des Ursulines is a pleasant place to stroll, with its picturesque homes (some now operating as B&Bs) and its unseen history, much of which is described on informational plaques throughout the neighborhood.
