A jewel in the crown of our modern architectural heritage, the Villa Noailles in Hyères celebrated its centenary in 2023. Commissioned in 1923 and built until 1932 to the designs of architect Robert Mallet-Stevens, the Villa Noailles Noailles is today a place of experimentation for established artists, a demanding spotlight on the talents of tomorrow. A leading centre for art, fashion, photography, architecture and design, the contemporary art centre of national interest organises the international Design Parade festival in Hyères and Toulon every summer, as well as exhibitions, workshops and residencies. Throughout the year, this emblematic site on the Var coast holds exhibitions on the history of the site and its avant-garde patrons: Charles and Marie-Laure de Noailles. The entire programme is free.
