The exhibits in this museum range from the Neolithic all the way to the present day. 

Before La Plagne was a ski resort it was a mining town, and part of that history is also captured in the museum. A former main church, this museum was founded by Pierre Borrione, a doctor and mayor of Aime who was possionate about preserving the numerous relics from his town's past. 

Temporary exhibits on the themes of history and archaeology run throughout the summer.

For opening dates and times please visit their website.
