Guided tour of Le Bastion, Jean Cocteau Museum

Musée du Bastion Jean Cocteau, Quai Napoléon III, 06500 Menton
  • In 1957, while working on the decor for Menton's wedding hall, Jean Cocteau spotted an abandoned 15th-century fortress "at the end of the dike between the port and the Promenade du Soleil": the Bastion.

    In 2005, it was merged with the Wunderman donation to form an ensemble of over 2,000 pieces.
    Even today, the Bastion is a must-see on any tour of Jean Cocteau's work in Menton.

    All year round, every Monday at 2.30pm and Saturday at 10.30am
    except January 1, May 1, November 1 and December 25. Difficult access for people with reduced mobility.
