Maison Mantin is a museum of artifacts from the 19th century housed in a beautiful house in Moulins. Visit to see some gorgeous pieces of furniture and other personal items as you find out about the man who once owned them. Louis Mantin was a rich man of leisure who enjoyed collecting art, antiques and trinkets that represented the French bourgeoisie. Before he died in 1905, he wrote in his will that he wanted the house to be preserved and opened up in 100 years. He thought this would help show future generations what life was like in the 19th century. Walk around the museum adjacent to the mansion to learn more about his plans for the house. A bit over 100 years later, in 2011, the house was finally renovated and opened to the public for guided tours of his original collections and mostly untouched architecture. After you view the items in the museum, watch the short film that describes the history of the house. Then, line up with your guide. The guide will take you through the open rooms of the house, describing the artifacts and answering questions. Look for the gorgeous tapestries, intricate stained glass and silk wall hangings. When the tour is finished, head outside to appreciate the building’s beautiful design from the exterior. The house, completed in 1893, was meant to resemble an oceanfront villa. Visits to Maison Mantin are by tour only, so book yourself a spot to ensure a successful trip. Check whether there is an English tour available. There is an entrance fee, though children and groups can buy discounted tickets. Take public transportation to Maison Mantin or walk from your local accommodations, as the house’s central location means it is easy to reach on foot. ### Popular places to visit ![Moulins Cathedral showing a church or cathedral, a fountain and heritage architecture](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6234837/6526e3a7-60c4-4b34-9b44-b28e80ae33b8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=900&h=506&q=mediumHigh) #### Moulins Cathedral Admire the striking architecture, important religious artwork and gorgeous stained-glass windows of this national monument in the center of Moulins.
