Le Moulin de Forville (Musee Victor Tuby)

Provencal mill dating back to 14th century, now a museum

featured in Sights & Sites

Forville Mill dates back to the 14th century. Some of the original presses are still on display, as well as traditional Provencal objects.

The Boccassien Victor Tuby, sculptor, biologist and founder of the Academy of Provence, brought together a rich collection of Provencal objects in this former oil mill in the heart of Le Suquet, turning it into his sculpture workshop and lab. In 1993 it became a museum dedicated to the arts and traditions of Provence.

Open only on the first Saturday of the month from 15:00 to 18:00, the mill is now used as a museum containing lots of Provencal antiques. On display are costumes, ornaments and lots of beautiful furniture including chairs, tables and other interesting woodwork.
