A museum for the whole family! Created in 1934, the Archaeological Museum of Arlon brings together many testimonies of the Gallo-Roman civilization discovered on the territory of the province of Luxembourg. The city of Arlon, which is located at the crossroads of two important Roman roads (Reims-Trier and Metz-Tongeren) experienced in particular great prosperity during the first centuries of our era, thanks to trade with neighboring regions, and as far as the Mediterranean. Located on the former territory of the city of Trevires, the agglomeration was called Orolaunum vicus. One of the peculiarities of the museum is its imposing and rich lapidary collection, composed of several dozen fragments of ancient funerary monuments. The remarkable conservation of these sculptures is due to their reuse in the foundations of the rampart built at the end of Antiquity to protect Orolaunum vicus from Germanic raids. In addition to the lapidary section, the museum also presents a wide variety of other objects, such as: - a collection of ceramics, - a collection of glasses, - a collection of metals, - a collection of organic material (wood, leather, bones), - a collection of mosaics and painted plasters, - the result of the excavations carried out at Arlon and the Villa de Mageroy
