Explore the ancient collections of the musée Lapidaire in the former chapel of the Jesuit college. Sculptures, vases and inscriptions introduce the Greek, Roman and Gallo-Roman worlds. The Tarasque de Noves and the warrior of Mondragon are among the pieces to look out for. The spacious Baroque chapel provides a distinctive setting for the display of objects and reliefs.
