Museum in Poitiers, housing wall remains and regional archaeology collections, with engraved portraits from the period.
Located near the Saint-Jean baptistery and opposite the Espace Mendès-France, the Musée Sainte-Croix is the largest museum in Poitiers and the largest in the Poitou-Charentes region. Occupying the site of the former Sainte-Croix Abbey, it was designed in 1974 by Poitiers architect Jean Monge. The concrete-and-glass structure, with its Brutalist style and respect for the historic district, was awarded the "Patrimoine du XXe siècle" label for its remarkable architecture.

Dans un bâtiment moderne, on trouve une très large collection d'œuvres, allant du paléolithique à l'époque contemporainew avec notamment de larges focus sur l'Antiquité, les époques mérovingienne et carolingienne, puis tous les siècles jusqu'à aujourd'hui. De très belles oeuvres, bien mises en scène.
