Espace Culturel Paul Gauguin
For Gauguin fans, a visit to the refurbished Espace Culturel Paul Gauguin is a must. Don’t get too excited, though; you won’t find any originals, just digital copies of his work. The detailed signs in English are very informative. Once you’ve done a full round of the paintings, timeline and literature, head outside and have a look at the Maison du Jouir (House of Pleasure), a replica of Gauguin’s own house.

Centre Jacques Brel
Housed in a big aircraft hangar, behind the Espace Culturel Paul Gauguin, is Centre Jacques Brel. In the centre is Brel’s plane, Jojo; posters tracing the musician’s life adorn the walls and his music plays dreamily over the sound system.
