This private museum is a real find! A fantastic collection of objects and machines from 1850-1960, domestic, agricultural and industrial, (including an amazing collection of real fire-engines), it offers an intriguing insight into how past generations lived, with something for all ages! Well organised, friendly and informative. Don't miss it when you come to Uzes! If taking the children to Haribo, give them a dose of culture too!

Whilst researching Tautavel Man, we somehow missed the museum and drove straight to the area of the archaeological dig. After scaling a somewhat treacherous hill to get there, we were meet by some thoroughly confused archaeologists in the middle of further excavation. They were shocked to see us and wondered where or guide was, then sadly were unable to allow us further inside the cave due to an apparent change by local government for visitor safety. The was happy to provide some information and we got a little look at the caves where the bones of Tautauvel man were found. It was a fascinating experience and a great mistake to have made. We then visited the museum on the way back for a closer look at the bones and other relics found. I would have been very disappointed had that been all we had seen. If it's possible to get a guide to the dig site I would highly recommend it, however full mobility will be required to make the climb.
