Modern but very small museum that shows the archaeological remains of the Roman Empire in the city of Lausanne. Interesting detail: A long, green cord represents the time from the creation of the earth to the present day. The time interval between events is shown as a distance on the cord. This helps to improve the imagination for long periods.

In the entrance area there are always changing special exhibitions on topics that have nothing to do with archeology but are worth seeing (included in the admission price). In the basement there is a cloakroom, lockers and toilets. Unfortunately no parking spaces for museum visitors.
