Musee Leon Dierx is an art museum in Saint-Denis, Réunion Island, established in the early 20th century following a mid-19th century call by local elites for a "Fine Arts" museum. Inaugurated on November 12, 1912, it is named after the Reunionese artist Léon Dierx and occupies the former residence of the bishops of Saint-Denis. The museum features a diverse collection, including works by Numa Desjardins, Pablo Picasso, and notable artists from the Lucien Vollard collection, such as Gustave Caillebotte, Paul Cézanne, and Paul Gauguin, alongside local artists like Arthur Grimaud and Adolphe Roy.

Small museum with eclectic collection of works of artists from or having lived on the island. Lovely building. Cheap souvenir posters.
