Impressive and well preserved collection of art. Location is wheelchair accessible with ramps and elevators to all levels. Restaurant available on site. No audio guides available. Temporary exhibit had bi-lingual explanations in French and English. Permanent exhibit explanations are in French only. Keep your ticket as it may be checked at various entry points.

Lovely museum, didn’t understand a lot as I sadly don’t speak much French but still cool to see a lot of the history of Angers and lots of great paintings. Very friendly staff and it wasn’t busy at all. Very affordable price at just €6.

Clementinum

The Clementinum is a historic complex of buildings in Prague. Until recently the complex hosted the National, University and Technical libraries, the City Library also being located nearby on Mariánské Náměstí. The Technical library and the Municipal library have moved to the Prague National Technical Library at Technická 6 since 2009. It is currently in use as the National Library of the Czech Republic.

Its history dates from the existence of a chapel dedicated to Saint Clement in the 11th century. A Dominican monastery was founded in the medieval period, which was transformed in 1556 to a Jesuit college. In 1622 the Jesuits transferred the library of Charles University to the Klementinum, and the college was merged with the University in 1654. The Jesuits remained until 1773, when the Klementinum was established as an observatory, library, and university by the Empress Maria Theresa of Austria.
