Comics Museum

Angoulême is the world capital of comics, and this museum is the heart of it — tracing nearly 200 years of the art form through both permanent and temporary exhibitions. You'll find it leans more toward the origins and history of the medium than modern stuff, but that's honestly part of its charm. There's also a specialist comics bookshop, a library, cinema, and research center all under one roof — it's way more than just a gallery.
