David d'Angers Gallery Angers

Once an 11th century abbey, this charming gallery never fails to delight its visitors. The architecture of the structure itself is quite delightful considering that it is reagrded as one of the best looking galleries in the region and among the attractions in Angers. It was in the late 1980s until the start of 1990s when this gallery came into fruition through the work done by architect Pierre Brunet. The gallery, which now houses sculptures created by locally born and educated artist David d'Angers also serves as a lasting testament to his work and his role as a great son of the town.
