Musée de la Romanité Ticket
Since its inauguration in 2018, the Musée de la Romanité of Nîmes has become a reference for the legacy of Roman antiquity that remains preserved in the south of France.
The museum, located opposite the iconic Arena of Nîmes, is housed in an avant-garde building designed by the prestigious French-Brazilian architect Elizabeth de Portzamparc.
Your ticket will give you access to the permanent exhibition, which boasts an outstanding collection of pottery, mosaics, sculptures and other objects from both the pre-Roman (800 to 100 BC) and Roman (27 BC to 400 AD) periods. In addition, one floor of the museum is dedicated to the medieval period, with outstanding sarcophaguses and pieces dating from 1000 to 1500 AD.
We also recommend going up to the museum's panoramic terrace, where you can take in extraordinary views of Nîmes. And don't miss the archaeological garden located at the back of the building, where you can check out various remains from Roman times.
