When I go to Roubaix, I love visiting the museum La Piscine. The building is very beautiful. It was a swimming pool before, but now it's an art museum. There are (some) immense windows so it's a very bright space. I also find the art very inspiring, especially the wonderful sculptures. I always feel calm when I'm in this museum. I really want to come back soon!
