CAPC Musée d'Art Contemporain

Bordeaux’s Contemporary Art Museum occupies a vaulted old warehouse, the Entrepot Laine. The massive stone rooms are a wonderful backdrop for the art, which includes pieces by Christian Boltanski, Daniel Buren, Gilbert & George, Nan Goldin, Mike Kelley, Richard Serra and Wolfgang Tillmans

The museum has several pieces by British artist Richard Long, including the long White Rock Line, recently restored, that runs through the courtyard and a series of photographs that preside over the Andrée Putman–designed Café at the top of the museum, a great spot for breakfast, brunch or lunch pre- or after a visit. Closed Monday.
