Audio Guide of the Hôtel d'Assézat

The Hôtel d'Assézat, home of the Bemberg Foundation, is open from Tuesday to Sunday from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM (until 7:00 PM in summer). You can easily get there by metro (Line A, Capitole station) or on foot from the city center; check the map on the official website.

General admission is €12 for adults, €9 reduced (students, seniors over 65), and free for visitors under 18 and residents of Toulouse Métropole. Buy your tickets online at the official ticket office to avoid lines.

It is recommended to allow between 1 and 1.5 hours to see the main collection at a relaxed pace. If you are passionate about Renaissance art and Impressionist paintings, you may want to extend your visit to 2 hours to explore all the details.

Built between 1555 and 1557 by the wealthy merchant Antoine d'Assézat, it is one of the finest Renaissance townhouses in Toulouse and now houses the Bemberg Foundation, with works by Renoir, Picasso, and Modigliani. It represents noble 16th-century architecture in the heart of the Pink City.

The best time is spring or autumn to avoid crowds and enjoy mild weather; weekday mornings (10:00 AM-12:00 PM) are ideal for fewer people. Avoid weekends and public holidays if you are looking for a quieter experience.

Access is partially adapted: there is an elevator to the upper floors, but some historic areas have stairs. Contact +33 5 61 12 06 89 or check details on the official website to confirm and request assistance.

Just a few minutes away on foot, you will find Place du Capitole, the Augustins Museum, and the Garonne River. It is ideal for a combined itinerary; walk toward Victor Hugo Market to sample local products.

Wear comfortable shoes for the stairs, book audio guides at IAudioguia to enrich the experience, and combine your visit with a coffee in the nearby square. Do not forget your ID for discounts and no-flash photography.
