Musées de Troyes

Echoing the national theme of «sustainable heritage», the Troyes Museums propose several actions to present the essential missions and actions of museums in order to guarantee a «sustainability» in the heritage time!
Conservation, restoration, mediation are the axes developed by the teams of museums. Thus, several thematic showcases in the Galleries of Painting exhibit some works (fine arts, graphic arts, archaeology, museum) to be restored in the coming years and thus allow visitors and future generations to admire and study them.
Members of the conservation team are present to answer your questions on Saturday the 17th (3pm-5pm) and Sunday the 18th (2pm-6pm).
