Musée de la Ville de Saint Quentin en Yvelines

The museum displays collections of contemporary objects, documents, and artifacts that represent the development of Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines through different time periods.

Originally established as an ecomuseum in 1977, the institution moved near the Saint-Quentin-en-Yvelines theater in 2002 and reopened as the City Museum in 2017.

The museum showcases local heritage through exhibitions about urban development, lifestyle changes, and architectural transformations in the twelve municipalities of the region.

The documentation center contains a specialized library and research materials accessible to scholars interested in studying the region's history and urban planning.

The institution preserves rare rural artifacts collected before urbanization, including agricultural tools and railway items from the Trappes sorting station.
