Founded in 1875, the museum was last modernised and enlarged in the 1980s. Today's tour focuses on the cultural and natural heritage of the Sud-Vendée and the history of the town during the Renaissance.
In order to modernise the museum, with the aim of revitalising the town centre as part of the "Action Cœur de ville" programme, and to position the facility as a vector of influence and tourist attraction for the region, the town has decided to renovate it in 2020.
