Maison des Consuls – art’s and archeology’s museum in Languedoc

The Maison des Consuls: Museum of Art and Archaeology in the Grand Pic Saint Loup

Located in the heart of the pretty medieval village of Les Matelles, the Maison des Consuls – Musée d’Arts et d’Archéologie is a must-see site in the Grand Pic Saint Loup area.

Following its renovation, this site has been transformed into a Museum of Arts and Archaeology, creating a lively dialogue between our era and prehistory, the modern and the ancient, archaeology and contemporary art in all its forms.

The vaulted rooms of this Musée de France are dedicated to the finest pieces in the archaeological collection, while the first-floor flat hosts temporary exhibitions.

This museum of “living” archaeology will not leave you indifferent!
