Museum preserving a rich collection testifying to the life of Nîmes since the early Middle Ages, installed in the former episcopal palace.

Located in the former episcopal palace, the Museum of Old Nîmes is the memory of our ancestors. Thirty thousand pieces testify to the life of Nîmes since the High Middle Ages. The textile collections from the 18th century merchant manufacturers, with the famous Nîmes shawls, the collections of the Nîmes Manufacturing School, the typical Nîmes and Cévennes furniture, and the regional pottery are organized into thematic rooms. One of them is dedicated to the Nîmes fabric and to the blue dye that gave Denim and blue jeans.

Well curated exhibits in the museum. The building itself is also interesting. You are given printed sheets with information on some of the exhibits. It would be nice if the exhibits had descriptions in English.

Pour qui est curieux de l'histoire faite par les femmes et les hommes qui ont façonné notre pays, ici on peut voir les objets du quotidien, les traces du travail de leurs mains, les matières premières de l'époque avant la mondialisation.

Musée sympa à visiter.

Coleção pobre e confusa, tirando as peças de mobiliário, com destaque para os armários, parece uma amálgama de tralhas do sótão da avó.

Visite du musée à l'occasion des journées du patrimoine.visite guidée assurée par une responsable du musée et une conteuse. Un vrai moment de bonheur de part la qualité des récits poétiques de la conteuse et les explications sur l'exposition d'art contemporain.
