Musée Denys-Puech

The building was completed in 1910 by the architect André Boyer, who designed a ground floor with large bays to enhance the sculpture collection.

After having offered the city of Rodez a large collection of sculptures and drawings, the sculptor Denys Puech (1854–1942) convinced his friends, the orientalist painter Maurice Bompard (1857–1935) and the engraver Eugène Viala (1858–1913), to donate some of their works to build the collections of the future museum.

In 1989, François Morellet created integrations on the north and south facades.

In 2005, the sculptor Aurèle Ricard created six bronze dogs lacquered in the yellow "International Aurèle Yellow" (IAY) as part of a public commission initiated by the museum.
