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.

Musée Fenaille Rodez
En plein cœur de la ville de Rodez et combiné avec le ticket du musée Soulages, on y découvre sur trois niveaux la plus importante collection de statues menhirs d’Europe.
L’ancien hôtel particulier mérite également votre attention, notamment la cour intérieure.

Un musée enrichissant pour toute personne qui aimé l'histoire : les statues menhirs sont vraiment intéressantes car il est assez rare d'en voir en France.

Musée tout à fait agréable, avec des espaces modernes, clairs et pas surchargés
La salle de "statue menhirs" est vraiment une découverte originale et magnifique, cela vaut le coup de ne pas louper cet étage
