THE MUSEUM OF URBAN HISTORY
Go there and contact
Ten years after its design, Nantes' history museum opened a new version in June 2016. He has new halls that come back to our close history, from the two World Wars to these days. Beyond contemporary rooms, the entire museography has been renewed. Within the 32 halls of the course, themes have been created, 300 new objects, mostly from collections made from the Nantais, but also acquisitions conducted by the city of Nantes for the benefit of the museum, are now presented. The city's history is told in seven sequences: the castle, Nantes and Brittany until the seventeenth century, Nantes, daughter of the river and ocean, trading and black gold in the eighteenth century, Nantes in revolution, a colonial and industrial port (1815-1914), in wars: 1914-1918/1939-1945, a Atlantic metropolis today and tomorrow… The journey ends with a vision of the city, a multimedia creation of Pierrick Sorin, which occupies the entire volume of the 32 nd Hall.
