Manuscripts, prints, plans, illustrations, photographs… Come and discover exceptional documents preserved in the collections of media libraries and archives.

The heritage, written and graphic, extraordinarily rich and varied, belongs to everyone, yet it is often unknown.
The present treasures were not chosen simply because of their rarity, age or beauty. They are valuable because they reflect the epochs, cultures, personal and intimate histories, as well as the collective ones in which they are inscribed.
This exhibition invites you to a beautiful journey between the 12th and 20th centuries.
Included are works and documents kept at the Municipal Museum of Sedan, within the Société d'histoire et d'archéologie du Sedanais and within the Société d'histoire des Ardennes.

The Municipal Library of Sedan was established in 1809\. The collection of books is made from the remains of various libraries of various origins, recovered as part of the revolutionary confiscations:
* the library of the Protestant Academy of Sedan, created in the seventeenth century under the impulse of the Prince de Sedan Henri de la Tour d'Auvergne (library that was dispersed in 1642 during the annexation of Sedan by France);
* the Catholic library of the Jesuit College (established in the 17th century);
* the library of the Capuchin Convent of Sedan.
