Grimaldi Castle (formerly Antibes’ city hall) is where Picasso had his studio in 1946. His many pieces of work from that year—including murals, paintings and drawings—are now displayed here, along with ceramics, etchings, and other works that were later donated to the museum. Additional galleries showcase the work of the abstract landscape painter Nicolas de Staël (who lived in Antibes for a period) and other noteworthy artists, like Joan Miró, Germaine Richier, and Anne and Patrick Poirier.
You can see the Picasso Museum on your own or on one numerous French Riviera day trips. To get a little exercise along with a serious dose of culture, opt for a walking or biking tour of the city.
