Muséal-Site Antique-Alba, Archaeological museum in Alba-la-Romaine, France.
The museum displays artifacts from the Gallo-Roman settlement of Alba, including pottery, tools, jewelry, mosaics, and architectural remnants uncovered through decades of excavations at this historic site.
Alba served as the capital of the Helvii tribe during the Roman era, developing into a prominent administrative center during the first and second centuries AD before being abandoned and forgotten for nearly 1,500 years.
The museum hosts temporary exhibitions, workshops for children aged four and above, and educational programs that bring ancient history to life through interactive activities and guided tours conducted by knowledgeable staff members.
The museum is open Monday through Friday from 10:00 am to 12:30 pm and 1:30 pm to 6:00 pm, and on weekends from 1:30 pm to 6:00 pm, with adult admission costing €5 and free entry for visitors under 25.
A free digital audio guide is available by scanning a QR code on the wooden footbridge between the parking area and the archaeological site, providing detailed historical context accessible directly through visitors' smartphones.
