Palais Lascaris

Overview

When in Nice, another attraction that must be visited is the baroque Palais Lascaris. This 17th century building was a palatial home of the Lascaris-Vintimille family that was turned into a public museum. Located in Nice's Old Town, the Palais Lascaris is a hidden gem that is definitely worthy of a visit. The museum is home to a large and beautiful collection of antiques and ornamentations that date back to the 18th century. While here, the monumental staircase as well as the palace's luxuriously decorated rooms are must-sees. There is also a 19th century apothecary's shop, or French pharmacy here that is worth a visit. This free attraction is also a great option for tourists on a rainy day.

Nice's Old Town is a fantastic place for those looking to get a bite to eat.
