Museum preserving a rich collection testifying to the life of Nîmes since the early Middle Ages, installed in the former episcopal palace.

Housed in the former episcopal palace, the Musée du Vieux Nîmes retraces local daily life from the High Middle Ages onwards, with nearly 30,000 exhibits. The thematic tour features decorative arts, typical Nîmes and Cévennes furniture, regional pottery and rich 18th-century textile collections. An entire room is dedicated to the famous toile de Nîmes, blue dyeing and the origins of denim. This sensitive, well-documented museum elegantly combines Nîmes' heritage, know-how and identity.

Coleção pobre e confusa, tirando as peças de mobiliário, com destaque para os armários, parece uma amálgama de tralhas do sótão da avó.

Visite du musée à l'occasion des journées du patrimoine.visite guidée assurée par une responsable du musée et une conteuse. Un vrai moment de bonheur de part la qualité des récits poétiques de la conteuse et les explications sur l'exposition d'art contemporain.
