The best museums Sisteron

This original museum, housed in the chapel of the former 17th century Visitandine convent, traces the evolution of time measurement through the presentation of instruments, objects and documents that are often rare, sometimes unique. A Foucault pendulum and a reproduction of the Al Jazari clepsydra (a Persian hydraulic clock from the 12th century) are among its highlights. The Route du Temps, from Sisteron to Beynes (80 km) is the logical complement to discover the geological traces of the Earth's history.
