In France, all museums have been closed since October 29.

All?

No.

In the middle of Vaucluse, in the small town of 30,000 inhabitants of Carpentras, a museum is still resisting the invader commonly known as coronavirus.

The ancient papal city at the foot of Mont Ventoux is indeed proud of still allowing visitors to discover works of art at the “Inguimbertine”.

Both municipal library and museum, this imposing 18th century building owes its name to its founder Mgr d'Inguimbert, a native of Carpentras but also in charge of the Pope's library in Rome in the 18th century.
