A stunning conversion from a swimming pool to an art gallery. It's located at Roubaix, on the outskirts of Lille, about a 30-minute ride on the Metro. Alighting at Gare Jean Lebas, the place looked decidedly ex industrial, almost run down. Further down the road, the museum was set back from the main road, and what a wonderful place. It has an impressive and wide ranging art collection including ceramics by Picasso.
