Musée d'Aquitaine Museums in Bordeaux

The Musée d'Aquitaine in Bordeaux is much more than just a museum. It's a veritable time machine that offers a fascinating insight into the region's history, from prehistory to the present day. Housed in the former Faculty of Arts and Humanities, this history and archaeology museum presents rich and varied collections that tell the story of the evolution of the region and its inhabitants.

Here you will discover prehistoric remains, Stone Age tools and objects, as well as impressive Gallo-Roman collections, testifying to the importance of Burdigala (the former name for Bordeaux) under the Roman Empire. The museum also covers the medieval period, Bordeaux's golden age linked to the wine trade, the slave trade – a dark but crucial chapter in the city's history – and the transformations of Bordeaux up to the 21st century. Temporary exhibitions regularly complement the permanent exhibition, offering new perspectives. The Museum of Aquitaine is an essential place to understand the roots of Bordeaux and an entire region.
