Museum presenting the three colonial periods of Mauritius, through a collection of objects, prints, lithographs, photos...

At the entrance of the city, at the end of a large park, this vast colonial residence, former property of the Robillard family, was built in 1771 and transformed into a museum in 1950. In separate rooms, the three colonial periods of Mauritius are presented through a collection of objects, prints, lithographs, antique furniture and photographs. There is nothing not to be seen, but you will be attracted by the old-fashioned atmosphere of the place and the charm of the house.

Great place to visit.
Photography is not allowed of anything inside.

Has a detailed history of the islands population and how they came to the island as well as the battles that took place.

Gift Shop was closed when we visited so couldn't get souvenirs.

Much better after renovation but not great. The anchors, old train and cannons outside will keep on deteriorating if not taken care of. Good display of the history on slavery, ancient coins, weapons, tools, means of transport, etc. Entry is free. Parking available. A guided tour will be welcomed, though there are posters explaining many things.
