Avant-garde from the floorboards to the roof, this museum (fondationdudoute.fr; adult/child €7.50/3.50) showcases the art and "state of mind" of the 1960s Fluxus movement, inspired in part by the American composer John Cage, which mocked the elitism of "high art" and sought to bring art to the people, in part through humor. Works by 50 artists, on loan from collectors, "invite visitors to call preconceptions into question" – as does the ironic commentary by Ben Vautier (whom everyone here calls just "Ben") that decorates the building’s facade. Situated 750m north of the château. The cafe serves light meals. Open 2pm to 6.30pm from Wednesday to Sunday; closed mid-December to early February.
