Mons - Jardins du Mayeur

The Musée de la Vie montoise on the left of the Museum of Art is a very beautiful museum which in a very vivid way describes the life of the people in Mons. It is housed in the Maison Jean Lescarts, a convent building of 1632 and in three rooms exhibits everyday objects and objets d'art.

Not far away from the Musées du Centenaire is the Musée des Beaux Arts where there is a collection of pictures primarily by French and Belgian artists from the 16th to 18th C., but there are no particularly fine works.
