Musée Lapidaire Saint-Nicolas


The Musée lapidaire Saint-Nicolas is an archaeological museum in Autun, France. It is housed in the former Saint-Nicolas chapel, dating from the 12th century.

Collection

The museum brings together elements of Gallo-Roman architecture from Augustodunum. The size of certain columns gives a good idea of the imposing appearance of the disappeared monuments. A gallery of tombs presents an alignment of 130 stelas dating from the 1st to 4th centuries; some elements of medieval craftsmanship are also visible.
The romantic-inspired garden lends the place to sketches and torchlight lighting during the Night of the Museums.
