It is organised around four main themes: the statue-menhirs, ancient Rodez, the Rouergue in the Middle Ages, the 16th century and the Renaissance. Numerous tools to help your visit and enable a personalised approach to the collections using models, drawings, audiovisual shows or interactive terminals.
