The Musée Archéologique in Strasbourg, located in the vaulted basement of the Palais Rohan, is the city’s oldest museum and one of the most important archaeological collections in France. Founded in the 18th century, it traces the history of Alsace from the earliest prehistoric settlements through the Gallo-Roman era and into the dawn of the Middle Ages. Visitors encounter artifacts spanning 600,000 years, including Paleolithic tools, Neolithic farming implements, Bronze and Iron Age tombs, Roman mosaics, and Merovingian treasures. The museum’s displays reveal the daily life of ancient communities, from mammoth hunters to Gallo-Roman citizens, offering a vivid journey through time. Its setting beneath the Palais Rohan adds a dramatic atmosphere, where stone corridors and vaulted halls echo with centuries of history. Open daily except Tuesday, the museum invites exploration of Strasbourg’s deep past, making it an essential destination for anyone seeking to understand the roots of Alsace’s cultural identity.
