Go there and contact
This beautiful Renaissance building is awarded to the architect Jacques Androuet du Hoop. It was built in 1548 for Philippe Cabu, a lawyer at the Châtelet. Discreet, unknown to the Orléanais, it still houses the Gallo-Roman bronze treasure found in the bed of the Loire in Neuvy-en-Sullias. It is a set of Gallic and Gallo-Roman sculptures known to specialists, but finally far less from the local point of view. The objects, of all beauty, reveal an extremely modern style of Bohemian art. The rest of the collection relates to the city's decorative arts and archaeology: medieval history, Renaissance sculpture, crafts and factories, ceramics. A room is dedicated to the port of Orléans, another to Joan of Arc under Redeployment, one, finally, to the architectural heritage of Orléans through the watercolours of the th century Charles Thought.
