The Musée du Nouveau Monde in La Rochelle, housed in the magnificent 18th-century Fleuriau mansion, traces the close ties between France (particularly La Rochelle, a major port) and the Americas since the 16th century. Its varied collections (paintings, engravings, maps, objets d'art, furniture) illustrate the discovery, colonization , the slave trade and slavery, as well as abolitions.
The museum addresses these complex themes with permanent and temporary exhibitions. It offers thematic tours, children's game booklets and audio guides, providing an educational approach that is accessible to all.
