Musée d'Archéologie de Nice

The Musée Archéologique de Nice-Cimiez is located in Cimiez, a neighborhood known for its many villas, and traces the history of Nice from the Neolithic period to the early Middle Ages. The collection includes Greek and Roman finds, with a particular focus on the baths and burial culture. Next door, an archaeological park preserves traces of the Roman settlement of Cemenelum. Here you can see the well-preserved remains of the magistrates' baths, whose frigidarium is especially intact. Part of the complex was later converted into an episcopal church. Outside the fenced-in area lies the amphitheater, which is now used as an event venue.
