In 2026, the Musée de la Romanité is partnering with the Louvre to explore the place of art in Roman civilisation. The exhibition breaks from the aesthetic approach inherited from the modern era and collectors, inviting visitors to rediscover an art deeply rooted in Romans’ everyday life and beliefs. The relics are not only beautiful; they carry functions, applications and meanings.

In this exhibition, the Musée de la Romanité shows an outstanding selection of masterpieces of the Louvre: one of the world’s
greatest collections of ancient art.
