More art

This morning, we drove north to reach Bagnols-sur-Ceze.  We visited this town to see the Musee Albert Andre, which is quite nice for a small town.

We followed the car's GPS to the center of Bagnols and found a parking place.  We didn't have an address for the museum, or a map of the town, but after speaking with a couple of locals, we realized that we had parked about 2 blocks from the main square, le Place Auguste Mallet.  Our guide book told us that the main square had two buildings of note: a clock tower and the Hotel de Ville (city hall).  The Musee Albert Andre is located inside the Hotel de Ville.
