Musée Georges Labit is one of Toulouse's more individual museums, housed in a fanciful villa with Moorish touches rather than a sober civic building. The collection reflects nineteenth-century collecting tastes, with Asian art, Egyptian antiquities, and objects brought together by traveller and collector Georges Labit.
It is a good museum for people who have already seen the city's Romanesque and medieval heavyweights. The setting, garden, and compact scale make it especially pleasant when you want a cultural stop that does not consume half a day.
