The Cité de l'Accordéon et des Patrimoines is Tulle's most distinctive museum. It covers the city's accordion tradition, the delicate point de Tulle lace that made the town's name travel far beyond Corrèze, and the industrial history tied to the old arms factory.
It is the sort of place that makes a modest town suddenly make sense. You leave with a better ear for why accordions matter here, and a better eye for the patient local craft behind the lace. Check opening times before building a day around it, as small regional museums can keep irregular hours outside the main season.
