Musée Narbo Via - Narbonne, France - Ancient Roman Civilization on Waymarking.com

[FR] La collection lapidaire y est présentée de manière spectaculaire sous forme d’un grand « mur »

La collection de peintures murales romaines participera à la découverte, avec une riche collection d’objets, de la cité romaine sous tous ses aspects : l’espace urbain, ses monuments et sa population, les nécropoles, la maison et son décor, le port et ses activités.

[EN] Narbo Via brings together three places, three stories: the Narbo Via museum, the underground galleries of the Horreum and the archaeological site-museum of Amphoralis.

This museum offers a wide range of experiences through a varied cultural program: discovery tours of the 1,000 works and objects in the permanent exhibition, temporary exhibitions, workshops, film screenings, festive evenings, behind-the-scenes tours and museum reserves, visits to excavation sites in the area, etc.

The museum houses a masterpiece, the monumental lapidary wall, an imposing set of 760 stone blocks.

This wall is in perpetual evolution since a robot allows to alternate the blocks exposed and explained to the public.

The museum was designed by the firm of the renowned British architect Norman Foster, who among other things designed the Millau Viaduct.
