The Anne de Beaujeu Museum (French: Musée Anne-de-Beaujeu) is a museum of art and history, established since 1910 in the Renaissance pavilion of the Palais des Ducs de Bourbon in Moulins, Allier, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. It adjoins the Maison Mantin, named after the collector Louis Mantin (1851–1905).

The museum is named after Anne of France (1461–1522), the daughter of Louis XI, who became Anne de Beaujeu by her union with the Duke of Bourbon Pierre de Beaujeu.

Since 2004, the Anne de Beaujeu Museum, previously managed by a joint union representing the town of Moulins and the department of Allier, has become purely departmental. The museum has received the "Museum of France” label.
