Very interesting permanent collection of gallo-roman artifacts found on site and around in Martigny. The sculptures in the garden are great too. If you like old cars, a large collection wait for you in the basement.

Very nice private archeological collection and modern art. Small garden with very nice famous sculptures. Beautiful Chagall mosaic fountain. Definitely worth the visit!
Super staff and services amazing museums
Amazing, the exhibition of Swiss artist was great, but the garden... Everything about it is perfect. Each sculpture is better than the other, and together they make a living masterpiece! Worth taking more time than an hour for the garden.
Great place to enjoy sculptures outdoors. Some Roman ruins are also on site. Be sure to stop at night to see the sculptures under a different light. The exhibits indoor vary by season. Very nice copper sculptures are part of the permanent exhibit. You can find also a small shop with book, mugs and various souvenirs to take home.
Martigny has much more to offer than people tend to think, and Fondation Pierre Gianadda plays a big part in that. The gardens are fantastic in the summer, kids are allowed to play freely and enjoy the sights and the shade. The exposition space has collections rotating 2-3 times a year, and the permanent displays are well above what you would expect for such a small town. With a bit of luck you will run into mister Gianadda himself, quite a character with one of the most interesting life someone can have.
One of the premier if not the number 1 modern sculpture museums in Switzerland.conparable to the (much more affordable) Louisiana Museum near Copenhagen. Which means a lot - especially in such a remote corner of Switzerland. The only drawback is the grumpiness of all the staff we encountered.
This place worth to be visited at least one time per year. They are periodically changing their collections, so you will never see two times the same exhibition. The place is perfectly sized: not too big and not to small, so you don't need to worry that you will spend the whole day inside.
