MUSÉE D'ART SACRÉ DU GARD
Read moreThis museum of sacred art, the only one of its kind in the region, is one of the highlights of Pont-Saint-Esprit. Located in the Maison des Chevaliers, a 12th century building, it presents, in a very successful museographic dimension, ceremonial rooms, 14th and 15th century frescoes as well as a superb collection of religious goldsmithery. One passes from one era or civilization to another without chronology, with the artistic expression of the sacred as the guiding thread.
