Musée Saint-Remi, History museum in Abbey of Saint-Remi, Reims, France
The Musée Saint-Remi exhibits archaeological discoveries and artworks across 17 rooms, documenting the evolution of Reims from prehistoric times to the Renaissance period.
The museum occupies a former Benedictine abbey established in the 6th century, which gained prominence after receiving the relics of Saint Remigius in 553.
The first floor features ten medieval tapestries illustrating the life of Saint Remigius and his role in converting King Clovis to Christianity in 496.
The museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 10:00 to 18:00, presenting regional artifacts, military exhibitions, and architectural elements from different periods.
The former refectory contains the marble sarcophagus of General-Consul Flavius Jovinus, representing one of the finest preserved ancient tombs in France.
