Bastion Museum
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
The Bastion Museum is a museum of works by Jean Cocteau, on the harbour wall of Menton, on the French Riviera, in the Alpes-Maritimes department of France. The bastion was built in the 17th century by Honoré II, Prince of Monaco.[1] Cocteau restored the bastion himself, decorating the alcoves, reception hall and outer walls with mosaics made from pebbles.[2]
The Bastion Museum opened in 1966, three years after Cocteau's death.[3]
A new exhibition of Cocteau's work is installed in the Bastion every year.
