Musée Dior
Fodor's choice
If you've ever imagined your home strewn with haute-couture creations, this place will, perhaps, give you a clearer picture. Christian Dior's childhood abode is now a museum dedicated to the fashion designer; the house would prove to be a source of inspiration throughout his career, as he recalled "the nostalgia of stormy nights, of the foghorn, of the Norman drizzle." A number of his garments are on display, and special exhibitions focus on themes like Dior creations worn by movie stars on- and off-screen. The beautiful "artist's" garden, created by Dior's mother Madeleine, overlooks the sea. On select Wednesdays, the museum offers themed workshops to children and adults.
