Chagall Museum (Musee National Message Biblique Marc Chagall)

Many travelers recommend making the Chagall Museum (think stained glass and colorful, surreal artworks) a part of your itinerary. But they recommend you come prepared by bringing your passport (or driver's license if you're a French citizen) for admittance. Like the Matisse Museum, this surreal arthouse is located in Cimiez.

One recent TripAdvisor traveler says, "If you can, visit on a sunny day to get the most from the vivid stained glass creations. The audio guides give a lot of revealing history and background on the artist and his life and are well worth a listen." Travelers also say that those familiar with painter's work -- and who enjoy it -- will probably enjoy this museum, but those who aren't big fans might want to spend their time elsewhere. Ticket prices are moderate, and hours of operation run roughly between 10 a.m. and 5 or 6 p.m. Check the website for further information.
