Nestling in the hills above Morestel, the Maison Ravier invites visitors to immerse themselves in the world of pre-impressionist painter François Auguste Ravier. Attracted by the unique light of the region, the artist spent the last twenty-eight years of his life here, masterfully transcribing the subtle variations of dawn and dusk.

Today, this municipal museum has retained all its charm of yesteryear and houses a collection dedicated to Ravier, a precursor of Impressionism, and his painter friends. The Maison Ravier has also been awarded the ‘Maison des Illustres’ label by the French Ministry of Culture.

Every year, from April to October, the Maison Ravier hosts temporary exhibitions featuring other talented artists, enriching the cultural experience of visitors.

In addition to its artistic interest, the Maison Ravier is a remarkable example of eighteenth-century architecture. The property is distinguished by its harmonious proportions, with a magnificent porte cochère porch, affirming its noble character. Its three-sloped mansard roof, covered in typical Dauphiné flaked tiles, is a distinctive feature that reflects the affluence of its original owners.

The ensemble is enhanced by a terrace planted with lime trees and a garden offering uninterrupted views of the Bugey and Chartreuse mountains, as well as the Belledonne and Vercors ranges. This exceptional setting makes it a must for lovers of art, history and heritage.
