Musée de Mimizan - Prieuré

Description

Le clocher-porche de l’église Sainte-Marie-de-Mimizan est le dernier vestige d’un important prieuré bénédictin du XIIe siècle. Derrière ses murs en brique, se cache l’un des plus beaux portails sculptés du sud-ouest de la France. Réalisé au début du XIIIe siècle, ce joyau de l’art médiéval a conservé ses polychromies et possède une des plus vieilles représentations françaises de Saint-Jacques-de-Compostelle. Le clocher-porche abrite également des peintures murales datées du XVe siècle. Classé monument historique en 1903 et 1995. Puis labellisé Patrimoine Mondial en 1998 grâce aux chemins de St Jacques.
Un espace muséographique complète la visite. L’exposition retrace l’histoire naturelle et humaine du territoire, de la préhistoire au Moyen-âge.
