Very interesting follow the guide - This is the museum to see if you go to Nîmes, very interesting with a plus if I may say you have to take the guided tour because it is exceptional in quality I have never had to deal with a guide so precise and interesting in its speech from start to finish

Alright - What a museum! The unmissable visit to Nîmes. Very beautiful temporary exhibition on Achilles. And a very beautiful museum rich in many objects, mosaics.... To do absolutely. More than 2 hours of wandering.

Ancient Rome beautifully collected in Nimes - Wonderful collection of ancient Rome, very rich in finds and well distributed, also rich in multimedia material. I didn't find the audio guide particularly useful, with reference to some finds and not always easy to grasp. Even our 10 year old son was thrilled to be able to see so much historical wealth up close. The price to access is also excellent, considering the content. A must for anyone passing through Nimes.

Exceptional museum - We were impressed by the visit to this museum with its original and very functional architecture. The rooms are very well arranged. The works are very well highlighted and commented on. Very high quality multimedia animations. A truly exceptional museum!

Beautiful museum - Beautiful museum. There are many Roman excavations in Nimes. There is a lot to see in this museum. I had purchased tickets in advance. The museum is located right next to the Arena in a beautiful, modern building. Afterwards we also went up to the roof. Nice view of the arena.

Incredible Museum Experience - This is an utterly stupendous museum! It is fairly new-I believe built just before the pandemic. It overlooks the magnificent amphitheater and has a convenient casual cafe. Inside the museum is about 3 levels and has some of the most amazing mosaics anywhere in the world. The museum has a nice chronological flow and non Francophones can easily understand the exhibits. There are a few good short films and some very innovative interpretive displays of frescoes, etc. I've been to a huge number of museums around the world and in France including the Louvre, Cluny (Musee du Moyen Age), L'Orangerie, d'Orsay, Musee Granet, Palais du Papes, Musee Alsaciennes, Palais Rohan etc. This is a TOP EXPERIENCE for anyone interested in the Greco-Roman Era and/or Medieval Age.

Outstanding! Not to be Missed - We always make a point of visiting the Civic and/or archaeological Museum which should provide the history of the city with lots of artifacts. We've been to some really great ones, particularly in Bordeaux, Rennes, and Nantes. But we're giving the prize to Nimes, perhaps because they had lots of info in English, and a super restaurant atop the museum. And really attentive and proud folks at the desk. Allow 3 hours if you want to "do it right". You can come and go to the restaurant.

Lots of pieces but too much writing! - I didn't appreciate the visit, too much writing and in very small print. The few interactive points work poorly, even when you're used to it! A real old-fashioned museum, as we didn't like them!

Nothing - Horrible. We were followed from start to finish by the staff who completely ruined the visit. Feeling observed, spied on and followed throughout the museum by creeps was just disgusting. We could hear their convos too, they really weren't discreet. I imagine they must have had fun with their miserable little lives. Pathetic. Real clowns.
