Musée Archéologique de l’Oise – MAO

Welcome to our home

The Musée archéologique de l'Oise is located in the heart of the Vendeuil-Caply archaeological site, 300 m from the Gallo-Roman theater. Today, the theater is the only visible evidence of an ancient agglomeration with a high density of habitats and monuments (theaters, temples, fanum, military camp, esplanades). Every year, programmed excavations on the site enrich our knowledge of it. From February 8 to September 28, 2025, the museum presents a new temporary exhibition: Permis de construire, l'art de bâtir à la romaine. Dive into the heart of a Roman building site! Through a fun and immersive tour, where walls gradually rise, you can test your building skills by lifting a block, building a vault, opening a lock with a Roman key, constructing a wall or reconstructing a mural decoration. A game booklet is also available at reception for younger visitors.
