The Musée du Petit Palais occupies the former palace of the archbishops of Avignon, begun around 1318 and remodelled under Giuliano della Rovere in the late 15th century. Opened in 1976, it shows Italian paintings from the 13th to the early 16th century from the Campana collection, including a Madonna and Child by Botticelli, and medieval painting and sculpture from Avignon.
The Calvet Museum is Avignon's fine arts museum, founded on the collections that the physician Esprit Calvet left to the city in 1810. It occupies the Hôtel de Villeneuve-Martignan, a mansion completed in 1749 to designs by Jean-Baptiste Franque, and shows paintings from the 16th to the 20th century, including David's Death of Young Bara, with sculpture and decorative arts.
