    • In the Pyrénées-Atlantiques in the heart of the territory of Luys en Béarn, the small village of Lalonquette has been home to an exceptional archaeological site for more than fifteen centuries: a Gallo-Roman villa.

      Located in North Béarn in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques, the Gallo-Roman museum retraces the history of a Gallo-Roman rural establishment which was born and developed from the 1st to the 5th century AD. Based on an elaborate museography featuring the restored mosaics, it offers, thanks to a playful approach, the discovery of the specificities of the villa around various themes (daily life, aristocracy, agriculture, architecture, etc.) illustrated by the presentation of collections.

      Complementary to the visit to the museum, the interpretation trail and the site of the Gallo-Roman villa of Lalonquette are freely accessible 7 days a week. To accompany your discovery, audioguides are available for free download on smartphones via the izi.TRAVEL application.

      Many educational events and activities are offered throughout the year. Find all the cultural programming on the museum's website: www.musee-claracq.com

    Great discovery of the day: a renovated and very educational museum. Note a very friendly welcome and clear explanations from an enthusiast (doctor in archeology). The idea of ​​presenting the museum's reserves as well as the researchers' work area to visitors is an undeniable plus. THANKS ! It is better to browse the museum before going to the site of the villa.

    Visit with my friends, with a very very affordable price for the broke students that we are. Benoît's guided tour taught us a lot and also amused us, the place is brand new and very didactic. Special mention to team 2 and Benoît who helped create an unforgettable memory for us! See you soon !
