How do we know about Jublains? The discovery of a mosaic in 1776 was the starting point of many archaeological researches which gradually made it possible to write the history of the site. The excavation, which began in 2010, in a district in the heart of the Roman city of Noviodunum, is a new chapter. This exhibition, designed by the Heritage Directorate of the Departmental Council of Mayenne, does not intend to present the results of this research still in progress but to give answers to questions that visitors sometimes ask about archaeology and antiquity: do archaeologists dig with brushes or spoons? Do they find treasures? Do the Romans eat French fries? The objects on display provide some answers.

Jublains is considered the best and most extensive testimony of the Gallo-Roman era of western France. This exceptional site, a true book of ancient history in the open air, invites the visitor to immerse himself with delight and curiosity in this historical period whose oldest traces discovered in Jublains date from the 4th century BC.-C. A territory, almost equivalent to that of Mayenne, is then occupied by the Gaulish people of the Diablintes. During the 1st century A.D. a new town, Noviodunum, was created on the site of Jublains, which became the Gallo-Roman capital of the Diablinte city. The city is endowed with public monuments worthy of its rank of chief town: a temple, a forum, thermal baths, a theatre. The remains of these buildings and those of a spectacular fortress built later make the delight of visitors in love with archaeology and history. Since 1995, the Departmental Archaeological Museum of Jublains, where are presented the collections of Gallo-Roman archaeology in May
