Musée Historique et Archéologique star : The Michelin guide review

The Le Neuvy-en-Sullias Gallo-Roman hoard, made up of statues of boars and a bronze horse, is the focal point of this museum. It is housed in the fine Hôtel Cabu (15C). There are sculptures from Germigny-des-Prés and Saint-Benoît-sur-Loire, historic objects from the time of Joan of Arc and local ceramics. The collection permits visitors to better understand Orleans popular imagery.
