VESUNNA, Gallo-Roman site-museum Vesunna, Gallo-Roman museum designed by Jean Nouvel in Périgueux

Unique in France. The remains of a rich Gallo-Roman residence in architecture by Jean Nouvel. Exceptionally showcased antique collections. A large umbrella hovers above the walls of the "Domus de Vésone" which it protects. A thematic tour explains "the city and public life" then "the house and private life". From the museum's mezzanines, a spectacular view opens onto the remains. Beyond, the high glass walls reveal the landscaped park of the Tour de Vésone and the remains of the 4th-century rampart. The building is like a window onto the past buried beneath the modern city.

Don't forget to watch Nathalie's report from Vesunna! A great video to make you want to go there...
