Immerse yourself in the adventure of Thérouanne, two thousand years of history and over a century of archaeology! Through collections of artefacts and interpretive displays, take a trip back to Tarvena, the capital of the Gallic people of the Morins, which became a flourishing Gallo-Roman city after Julius Caesar's conquest. Around its ancient cathedral, discover the vast medieval bishopric that was later transformed into a bastioned stronghold around which the French King Francis I, the Spanish Emperor Charles V and the English King Henry VIII clashed. Witness its destruction in 1553 and its rebirth as a rural village that has become an extraordinary playground for archaeologists. Come and discover the secrets of Tervanna, the "Pompeii of the North", for young and old alike...
