The archeological site of Saint-Romain-in-Gal constitutes,

devoted to the Gallo-Roman civilization in France.
The museum is located at the heart of a vast cultural
park of 7 hectares, which revives this residential
district of Vienna at the Gallo-Roman era: therme,
workshops, dwellings, shops were thus updated since
1967. The museum is organized around four spaces:
history of ancient Vienna, economy and the craft
industry, mosaic and everyday life in the Roman
house. The workshop of restoration in charge of
the conservation of the mosaics is recognized today
at the international level for the quality of its
work.
