Enter the unique world of an internationally renowned artist from Mayenne! This strange museum is the sum of his travels, his artistic influences, his convictions, all the cultures he has encountered and much more besides...

Do you know La Frénouse? Here you can discover the work of Robert Tatin, a native of the Mayenne region who moved to this little corner of the countryside in 1962.
Drawing on his travels, this artist, painter and architect created an exceptional monumental work introduced by the Allée des Géants. Enter the Garden of Meditations and discover the rooms of paintings, ceramics and lithographs.

Even if the museum is completed in its entirety, creation is always in motion thanks to the temporary exhibition room "La Grange". Here, nature and culture come together in the heart of 5 hectares of gardens filled with contemporary sculptures.

Access to the artist's house is by guided tour only (booking required).
