Cité de l’Accordéon et des Patrimoines

The Cité de l’Accordéon et des Patrimoines (Accordion and Heritage Centre) in Tulle opened its doors in 2024. Here you can enjoy a unique experience, immersing yourself in the world of the accordion, admiring Tulle lace work and discovering the history of the city’s arms factory.
In an exceptional building, the former Banque de France, you can discover, try out, share and, above all, listen to the heritage that makes the city of Tulle so rich.
New spaces have been created, such as the auditorium and outdoor gardens. Cultural activities and a rich programme of events are also on offer.
The Cité is accessible to people with reduced mobility (hearing, mental, motor).
Closed on Mondays and Tuesdays.
