In the heart of the old town, nestles the Maison Caral (the oldest building in La Mure) which has housed the Matheysin Museum since 1994. The museum presents collections (machines, tools, paintings, photos) telling the story of Matheysine, Beaumont and Valbonnais.
Archaeology (prehistory, Gallo-Roman and medieval periods) and the Wars of Religion (Siege of La Mure in 1580) precede the rooms of miners, peasants, glovers and peddlers, activities that brought this mid-mountain region to life.
The last spaces address regional sculptors and painters of the 19th and 20th centuries. Since 2012, part of the museum has displayed the work of abstract painter Claude Garanjoud (1926-2005).
Each season, the museum offers a new temporary exhibition.
