The Museum - Hotel Morin is the private home of Pierre Morin, treasurer of Louis XII. Built between 1501 and 1505, it became in the eighteenth century the ducal palace of the duke of Choiseul, then the seat of the town hall of the French Revolution in the 1970s, date of the construction of a new building housing the town hall. By the end of the 19th century, the building was transformed into a museum, bringing together national repositories and collections acquired by successive municipalities. The Hotel Morin was listed as a historic monument on October 8, 1880\. Its architecture dates from the first French Renaissance, an alliance of French Gothic and Italian Renaissance.
