Picasso Museum

The Château Grimaldi was originally built in the late fourteenth century as the residence of the town's feudal lords Marc and Luc Grimaldi, scions of the famous Grimaldi Dynasty, and has borne their name ever since.(Yes, think Monaco, Prince Reineir and Grace Kelly!!!). Picasso lived here for 6 months in 1946. He and his 2nd wife bequeathed number of works to the museum. Today the collection totals 245 works by Pablo Picasso, incl. “La Joie de vivre“, “Satyr, Faun and Centaur with Trident“, “Still life with owl and three sea urchins“, “The Woman with the sea urchins” and “She-Goat“.
