The mission of a museum, as defined by the International Council of Museums (ICOM), is to preserve, ensure continuity and communicate to society the value of cultural and natural heritage worldwide, in the present and the future, in its tangible and intangible states.
For several months now, the team of the Nouveau Musée National de Monaco (or NMNM) has been reflecting, making inventories, organising, questioning... The consultation has included discussions with historians, restorers, designers, lighting engineers and meetings with artists aiming at renewing our outlook on the concept of heritage and the way it is transmitted to the public.
This collective work has been called "Training for a Museum". It focuses on enabling the residents and the public to understand what a National Museum is and how it fits within contemporaneity. This training will continue until the opening of a building that will accommodate such an ambitious museographic project.
Villa Sauber 17, avenue Princesse Grace and Villa Paloma 54, boulevard du Jardin Exotique are open every day from 11am to 7pm
By proposing at least two exhibitions a year, the NMNM will reveal a long-ignored heritage and develop the discovery of the contemporary scene. As of now, "Training for a Museum" has determined the programmes of the Villa Sauber and the Villa Paloma according to two themes that are intimately linked with cultural, historical and artistic heritage of the Principality: Art and Performance at the Villa Sauber, Art and Territory at the Villa Paloma.

In 1924, representatives of old Monegasque families, who wished to fight against the risk of losing their national identity, set up "Le Comité National des Traditions Monégasques" (The National Committee of Monegasque Traditions), which includes in its missions :
- The preservation of civil and religious traditions
- The preservation and promotion of the Monegasque language
- The preservation of the Monegasque heritage
Civil and religious traditions have been maintained. Even though the Monegasque language is not in everyday use any longer, it is taught in the schools in Monaco and can be taken as a subject in the baccalaureate. It is also taught to adults so as to encourage families to use it on a day-to-day basis.
Visit
In the future, the fundamental missions needed to preserve Monegasque identity will be strengthened by another priority close to the heart of the committee: the preservation of the material heritage, by means of the Musée du Vieux Monaco, and, as well, the immaterial heritage, thanks to the diffusion of Monegasque language and culture through modern methods such as the internet.
