very interesting even for somebody not a "textile" fan More

Enjoyed seeing the fabrics but was disappointed that the museum closed for 2 hours between 12 and 2. We only had 1 afternoon to tour the city. More

Desite the low light for obvious reasons, the displays were very interesting, BUT I would have appreciated English translations. There were none to be seen, despite adequate place for an English text. Maybe it will be there in time for my next visit? More

The fabric museum was brilliant. Fabrics on show ranged from antique fragments (surprisingly complex and finely made) to modern Lurex.

I enjoyed the Musee des Tissues and was pleasantly surprised at how interesting the exhibits were. The building the museum is housed in is beautiful as well. More

Man, if you love textiles, decorative arts or costume history, this duo-museum is worth a stop in Lyon all by itself. The decorative arts side has an outstanding collection of furniture, ceramics, etc, even including a palanquin (or were there two?). The textile side has examples from ancient times to modern, with, of course, some incredible examples of silk manufactured... More

Lots of really old textiles. Amazing how they survived More

No words to say how beautiful and how rich. it includes some real rare pieces and it is absolutely enjoyable. Totally recommended for people loving decorative arts and as it is my case silk manufactures. Probably not so charming for and ordinary visitor that can anyway spend one or to hours and bring back some good feelings. More
