Egypt at the time of Alba – A look at two Roman provinces

1

Cleopatra had just lost Egypt to Rome. At the same time, on the other side of the Mediterranean, the Roman Empire was developing its power over former Gallic territory and founding Alba, capital of the Helvians.

Description

The exhibition ‘Egypt at the time of Alba, two Roman provinces at a glance’ has been designed to take visitors back to two thousand years, to both sides of the Mediterranean.
You can take a close-up look at more than 110 objects from the reserves of 10 French museums, all discovered in Egypt.

This bilingual French-English exhibition is great fun for all ages, with a children's playroom at the end of the tour and a variety of things to handle, smell and guess at along the way.
A must-see until 7 December 2025!
An exhibition designed by Nicolas Franchot.
