Largest collection of works by Henri Toulouse-Lautrec. Very good display of works from throughout his life. Very good description of works and overview of his life displayed from room to room. Also, some works by his famous instructors and friends. Descriptions in French, English, and Spanish (Castellano). I saw that in each room, there are large laminated card with the descriptions in other languages (German, Occitan, and others). The old building housing the collection itself would be worth visit. The museum store is much more reasonably priced than most. The staff is very kind. They are obviously proud that Lautrec is their home town boy. Really very nice experience.

Un moment magique que la visite des salles consacrées aux œuvres de Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec. Il faut dire qu'elles sont très nombreuses et exposées par thèmes ce qui en facilite la découverte et la compréhension. Le palais de la Berbie est une construction majeure et il offre un écrin remarquable aux oeuvres exposées. J 'ai lu qu'un visiteur s'est offusqué de la présence de peintures présentant des prostituées peintes par H2TL dans l'ancien palais épiscopal....il faut vraiment être étroit d'esprit car en l'occurence les oeuvres sont exposées dans des pièces qui n'avaient pas de vocation religieuse en tant que telles puisqu'il s'agissaient de pièces de vie et non de culte....bref...deux points d'amélioration pour le conservateur : le vitrage et l'éclairage des œuvres est plus que perfectible car certaines oeuvres sont compliquées à découvrir tant le vitrage est couvert de reflets parasites. D'autre part les hommes qui tiennent la caisse à l'accueil sont patibulaires et pas accueillants DU TOUT. Je n'ai pas visité les salles consacrées aux autres artistes faute de temps et aussi parce que voir du Georges de la Tour par exemple,après 90 minutes consacrées à H2TL risquait de rompre le charme de la visite dédiée au peintre dont j'étais venu découvrir les oeuvres pas encore vues à l'occasion d'autres expos itinérantes.

I fully recommend to visit this art museum. The art collection is top notch, very interesting and we'll presented. But the real jewel is the building; there is an exhibition about the history of the building and the restoration process that was done on it that surprised me and that I enjoyed even more than the art exhibitions. Sadly they were making preparations for an event and we were not allowed to visit the gardens.

Always a pleasure to walk through the art galleries of Toulouse-Lautrec Museum. Family day out with the kids to Albi and the temporary exhibition on Giacometti. A pity the museum does not offer a "kids-friendly" tour of the museum. Maybe they do but we were not informed. Anyway, a suggestion that might be worth looking into to keep children captivated at all times!

The museum has many of Toulouse Lautrec’s paintings that were donated by three women, one was his mother and there is a portrait of her too in the museum. It’s very interesting to visit and learn about his life and artwork. Take your time. The museum is closing for noon though but you can go in the evening too with the same ticket. Totally recommend it!

Worth taking the time to visit. The museum is well done. It was interesting to learn the history of Lautrec and see his work from a budding artist to the end of his life. It was nice the museum provided English translated guide sheets throughout the museum. When you're done make sure to check out the garden in the back.
