About Archaeological Museum of Dijon
In Dijon, the Archaeological Museum occupies the atmospheric former abbey of Saint-Bénigne, whose medieval dormitory, cloister and Romanesque crypt provide a superb setting for a rich journey into the ancient past of Burgundy. Its collections span from prehistory to the Middle Ages, with remarkable Celtic and Gallo-Roman finds — including the famous votive offerings from the sources of the Seine and a fine head of the goddess Sequana — alongside sculpture, jewellery, ceramics and everyday objects unearthed across the region. The venerable stone halls, ribbed vaults and columns of the old abbey add greatly to the experience. Fascinating, atmospheric and beautifully housed, the Archaeological Museum of Dijon offers an evocative exploration of the deep history of Burgundy and its peoples, a rewarding cultural stop in one of France's great art cities.
