The Musée d'Aquitaine is a Bordeaux museum. It is a museum of history, archeology and ethnography. Its collection brings together historical and archaeological finds from the Aquitaine region, thus tracing the history of Bordeaux and its region, from prehistoric times to the contemporary age. Founded in 1962, it is located in the building of the former faculty of literature and science of the University of Bordeaux, built in the 19th century. The museum is divided according to the various chronological sections: the room of "Prehistory and Protohistory", rich in stone and bone objects, jewels and bronze objects, presenting the evolution of different human civilizations from the first traces of man in Aquitaine until the age of Caesar; the "Ancient Period" room, which collects the evidence of the Gallo-Roman era, in which Bordeaux was called "Burdigala", slowly becoming an important trading center thanks to its maritime and river hub; the "Medieval Rooms", which cover a period of 6 centuries: from 848, when Bordeaux was destroyed by the Normans, to 1453, when Aquitaine became French again, therefore the period of development of the city and the region under the dominion English and the halls of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. And again, the history of the city is witnessed in the eighteenth century, a period in which it was the protagonist of Atlantic trade and the exploitation of slavery. In the room dedicated to the nineteenth century, however, we see the testimonies of a cosmopolitan city strongly linked to international countries thanks to trade agreements. The last room is finally dedicated to the 20th and 21st centuries, inviting visitors to explore the recent history of Bordeaux and the region, their profound changes and their aspirations from here to the horizon of 2030.
