Jule Collins Smith Museum of Fine Art

Alabama


Located at the entrance to the Auburn University campus, this museum is notable for its exterior alone, a 40,000-sq-ft stone-clad facade that is immediately eye catching. Inside, some 2500 works of art are spread across six galleries, as well as an outdoor sculpture garden and walking paths.
