Museum of art and history offers a unique opportunity in the region: to immerse yourself in the intimacy of the merchants but also to discuss their roles within the Cognac city.
Located in the Dupuy-d-'Angeac mansion, a family of merchants, the "musée d'art et d'histoire" offers a set of collections about the history of the region thanks to the collections of the families of merchants. The museum has an archaeological collection with an amazing Neolithic dugout, a remarkable set of paintings from Nothern Schools, a collection of decorative art objects, mainly the Art Nouveau style with some creations by Emile Gallé, and also important collection of Saintonge paintings.

This old mansion, built in the 19th century and listed in 1943, opens onto the beautiful public garden of the town hall. From 1925, the "muse d'art et d'histoire" moved into this elegant mansion of a cognac merchant of which the old-fashioned charm recalls the glorious days of the cognac, when it was exported far beyond the borders, playing a part in the reputation of the eponymous city.

Two footpaths allow you to discover the major buildings of Cognac thanks to signposting in the town.
"King's walk" (Le Parcours du Roy) and "Belle époque Walk" (Le parcours belle époque) bring to life the arcitectural heritage of the ancient centre of Cognac. The former takes you back to the beginnings of eaux-de-vie (17th and 18th centuries) ; the latter, with a visit to the essential Place François I, is an invitation to return to the 19th century.
