Description
Located in the heart of Saint-Paul-Trois-Châteaux, the Musée d'Archéologie Tricastine traces the history of the Tricastin region from prehistory to the Middle Ages. The current exhibition "Vivre et Mourir en Tricastin de la Préhistoire au Moyen Âge" ("Living and Dying in Tricastin from Prehistory to the Middle Ages") reveals the funerary rites and daily life of the Tricastin inhabitants, thanks to a number of remarkable objects. These include a 108 m² mosaic and a Hebraic Holy Ark dated 1451, the only one of its kind in France. Throughout the year, the museum offers a variety of events to explore the rich history of our region.
