Musée d'Histoire, de Préhistoire et d'Archéologie sous marine de Saint-Raphaël, Archaeological museum in Saint-Raphaël, France
The museum exhibits cover 800 square meters and display collections from prehistoric periods, ancient civilizations, and underwater archaeological discoveries from the Mediterranean Sea.
Founded in 1968, the museum occupies a medieval church building that includes a crypt and fortified tower, which served as defensive structures during earlier centuries.
The museum presents extensive collections of amphorae recovered from Roman shipwrecks, along with artifacts documenting 600,000 years of human presence in the region.
The museum operates Tuesday through Saturday from 10:00 AM to 6:00 PM, with digital guides available through QR codes for self-guided exploration.
From the medieval watchtower, visitors can observe the Mediterranean Sea while standing at the exact location where guards monitored maritime approaches centuries ago.
