The Musée Départemental features a frighteningly large stuffed black caiman, as well as other preserved local critters, an ethno-botanical display and an air-conditioned butterfly and insect room. The upstairs area recaptures life in the old penal colony and displays some Amerindian handicrafts. Look out for the 22 paintings of convict life on display here by former inmate, François Lagrange.
