The photographic collection of the Château d’Eau
A place and a collection
As early as 1974, the founder of the place, Jean Dieuzaide, and the city of Toulouse had a project to create a Museum of Photography. The museum has not been formalized but a rich collection has accumulated over time. The collection reflects the exhibitions of the Château d’Eau. The collection includes 5500 prints, documents and glass plates.
New acquisitions are made within the Direction des Musées de Toulouse.
The collection on show at the Musée des Abattoirs
Until May 18, 2025, the “Open your eyes” exhibition presents a wide selection of photographic works from the collections of the two public institutions, both of which bear witness to the great periods in the history of photography.
