    Founded in 1889 and installed in the Hôtel de Pellerin since 1967, the Musée du Colombier presents collections covering a vast period from prehistory to 20th century art.

    In the second half of the 20th century, the archaeological collections were considerably expanded, until today they constitute a remarkable collection, testimony to the human occupation of the Alès region from prehistoric times to the medieval period.

    The Dovecote Museum is nestled in a beautiful 18th century mansion, with a French garden decorated with a beautiful rock garden.
