Musée de la Gendarmerie et du Cinéma

The Gendarmerie and Cinema Museum invites you to discover the history of its building. Before becoming a symbolic place thanks to the movies about French Police Force (with Louis de Funès), this building welcomed the real Police Force from 1879 to 2003.

You carry on the visit with an explanation of the picture of the police in the cinema field, then an introduction of the cinema history in Saint-Tropez. This particular space of the museum reveals the movies realized in the Gulf of Saint-Tropez, but also the different positions available around the cinema field.

Next stop during the visit, you’ll discover the myth versus the reality of Saint-Tropez through the cinema industry. On the ground floor, there is the Art Exhibition Hall.

The Museum has obtained the Label Tourisme & Handicap. The has facilities are adapted for the reception of people with specific needs (access for people in wheelchairs, for the blind and for the hearing impaired).
