Ecomuseum of Ben-Ahin
The Ecomuseum offers a journey through the major periods of history, starting from local archaeological collections. Bones of the glacial fauna, cut flints, Roman funerary deposits, medieval weapons, objects belonging to the industrial era … are supplemented by various reconstructions as well as tables that allow us to visualize more easily the life of our ancestors in a rural environment.
Outside, a garden of utilitarian plants, local or imported in the course of history, completes your visite.
Families
The museum offers you, through the vicissitudes of a rather rural and sometimes industrial place, to travel through the great periods of history and to explore the relationships that people maintain with their environment, from prehistory to today. Archaeological objects found on site and reconstructions illustrate the subject. Nature and heritage activities – for groups, schools and individuals – are regularly organized in our buildings or in the nearby Solières valley to vividly convey the approach of these two regions.
