Musée Archéologique de St

TIME : 2016/2/18 18:02:56

The waters off St-Raphaël are home to the largest number of antique shipwrecks in France and the town has been at the forefront of marine archaeology ever since. You’ll therefore be able to see a 1928 Scuba system developed in St-Raphaël and the first commercial equipment developed by Jacques-Yves Cousteau in the 1940s, as well as numerous artefacts rescued from local wrecks. Visitors can also access the adjoining medieval church and panoramic tower.
