Uzès’ history as a confectionery centre lives on at this Wonka-esque museum, which explores the sweets-making process from the early 20th century through to the present day. There’s a collection of antique advertising posters and vintage confectionery machinery, but inevitably it’s the rainbow-coloured sweets shop that takes centre stage. It's 4km southeast of town.
