The archeological museum of Viuz-Faverges consists in three rooms with an abundant collection of objects from old discoveries, or recent excavations and prospecting in the region.
These objects, from the most common to the most sophisticated ones take you back to the highlights of human occupation, from the Neolithic to the XVIIth century, in the county of Faverges. Axes made of polished stone, bronze or amber jewels, coins, pottery, tools, cauldrons all bear witness to this period.
