National Porcelain Museum Tickets

The name Limoges evokes the art of porcelain. When you purchase a ticket to the National Porcelain Museum, you will enjoy the city's largest exhibition of the world-famous ceramic.

What to expect

In 1768, an essential clay called kaolin was discovered near Limoges. This type of clay allowed Europe to replicate China's translucent white ceramic art. Since then, Limoges porcelain has become an international reference.

The Adrien Dubouché National Porcelain Museum houses the largest public collection of Limoges porcelain in the world, alongside other ceramics. This exhibition includes more than 18,000 pottery works, showcasing the evolution of ceramic art from Antiquity to the present day.

This four-room gallery is located inside an Italian style palace built in the early 1990s, which has become a landmark in the city.

Opening hours

The National Porcelain Museum in Limoges opens every day, except Tuesday, from 10 am to 12:30 pm and 2 pm to 5:45 pm.
