    Erst vor rund 40 Jahren wurden die Mauern der Basilika entdeckt. Das Museum ist aussen bereits interessant eingerichtet und befindet sich mitten in der Altstadt von Nyon und ein paar Fussschritte vom Schloss entfernt. Montags ist das Museum leider geschlossen. Der Eintrittspreis liegt bei CHF 8.- pro erwachsene Person. Für Museumsliebhaber sicherlich ein vertretbarer Preis.

    Interesting stuff, English explanations was in a separate booklet but was quite hard to use due to lack of sign on what corresponds to what exhibit. Museum was also really dark which made it difficult to read the booklet

    Had my cousin as our personal tour guide and I think that made me enjoy this experience much more that any other museum I've ever been to. Would recommend getting a tour guide, makes this place so much more interesting! I don't think I would have had much fun just walking around without explanations! Not a very large museum, but it's history is makes up for that!

    Cute little Roman museum tucked away in the streets of Nyon. Included in the museum pass for the region. Free entry first Sunday of the month!

    A great museum with a wonderful ambiance of walking around within the walls of an ancient Roman town. Exhibits were interesting however the English card lacked a clear sequence. Wonderful to learn such old history about Nyon.

    If you are into Roman history, this museum is worth visiting. It is near Geneve in the city of Nyon. You can visit the museum, the status of Julius C. and the three columns in one time. It opens at 14:00 so plan ahead. There is not much left of the roman basilica, but they made a good effort on showing how the romans build this momument. There is also information about the aqudact that is still visible in Nyon and of course there are pots and pans, coins and a video about the monument. With the ticket you have access to three local museums in total.

    Nice place to visit. Had the chance to listen to a free concert tonight. Only critique is that the information is only in French.

👍👍 Neat museum all about the history of Lake Geneva and fishing. Very nice variety of exhibits that both kids and adults would enjoy. Explanations are in French only so I had to use google translate. Surprised to see a few small aquariums and an adorable little mouse! I love Tintin, and was excited to...
