Historial Museum of Île-d'Yeu, musée consacré à Philippe Pétain en France
The Historial Museum of Île-d'Yeu is a small private museum on Rue de la République housing collections about the island's past. Inside are photographs, old documents, and objects that belonged to people who lived here, offering a view of local life across generations.
The museum preserves records of island life and the communities that shaped it over time. Documents and photographs trace how residents lived and worked through the years.
The museum sits in Port-Joinville, a small harbor village with deep roots. Displays show how the community has understood and preserved memories of those who lived on the island over generations.
The museum is small enough to visit in a brief stop while exploring the village or harbor area. Its location on the main street makes it easy to find when walking through Port-Joinville.
The museum displays personal items and preserved rooms that offer an intimate look at how people lived in their daily routines. These objects create a direct connection between visitors and the people whose lives are being remembered.
