Musée de l’Île d’Oléron

The Musée de l'Île d'Oléron displays over 500 objects that trace the island's evolution from Neolithic times to the present day through its permanent collections.

The museum's collections were primarily assembled in the early 1960s to preserve and transmit the historical heritage of Oléron Island for future generations.

The museum showcases traditional Oléron activities including wine cultivation, salt production, pine resin gathering, oyster farming, and fishing through permanent and temporary exhibitions.

The museum is located at 9 Place Gambetta with an admission fee of 4.50 euros for adults and offers guided tours included in the entrance price.

The museum organizes an annual escape game in August by reservation where participants must solve a mission related to Oléron Island's heritage preservation.
