La Piscine was the municipal swimming pool for the city, built in 1932. It operated into the 1990s when the city really needed a new, modern pool and rather than let this incredible art deco wonder go to rot, it was turned into a museum. The architect also transformed the Musee d'Orsay in Paris, a former train station. It is sensational, retaining the pool, changing rooms, the mosaic art deco glories and filling the museum with wonderful artworks, Picasso, Claudel & so many more The Henri Bouchard atelier is breath-taking, filled with his sculptures. It really looks as if the great artist just popped out and is coming back any time. Next door, a room encourages visitors to touch art, feel it as a sculptor would, the lines and flaws, the coldness of marble or bronze. And don't forget to enjoy lunch in the lovely restaurant and a famous waffle! It's seriously one of the best museums I've ever been to.

Believe the guide book and don't try and walk this from Roubaix Euroteleport metro and tram station - it's a long way, and bus (L3?) gets you right there. It's a very interesting place with a range of textile machines over the ages, some of which the guide runs - what a racket! Descriptions on most of the equipment is trilingual, but the history boards are all in French only. You MUST get there for the start of one of the tours (at 2pm, 3pm or 4pm) for it to make complete sense. But look in awe at some of the intricate designs these massive machines can make all because of a clever old sod called Jacquard who invented the link between punch cards and textile patterns to drive these noisy lumps of technology. A great afternoon.
