Museum housing the most important and oldest collection of statue-menhirs in France, to be discovered in Rodez.

The museum's collection comprises some 25,000 pieces, donated since 1836 by numerous generous donors. A good 1,000 of these are now on display in the three-storey mansion. Among the collection's masterpieces are the Dame de Saint-Sernin and her acolytes: statue-menhirs, most of them discovered in Aveyron and sculpted in the3rd millennium BC to represent "life-size" man. Other treasures include a 2nd-century bust of Marcus Aurelius and a Gallo-Roman horse head.

Dommage...
Une collection exceptionnelle dans un lieu magnifique, mais avec très peu d'informations dans les vitrines....personnel désagréable qui nous a mis dehors littéralement à 17h50, alors qu'il nous restait un étage à faire.... nous sommes donc repartis déçus et frustrés...

Les statues menhirs sont extraordinaires et c'est très émouvant d'être relié à nos ancêtres à travers ces objets.
