**★★★★★ Mike Astill — a year ago
Very interesting little museum. We learned a lot about the history of Biarritz and the Basque Culture and History
**★★★★★ Katherine Walshe — a year ago
Such a lovely museum run by brilliant staff. It has a beautiful Porch dedicated to those who fell in the south-west of France during the Peninsular War, including “Wellington’s Master Builder of Military Bridges” Lt. Col. Henry Sturgeon who died at Vic-en-Bigorre on 19th March 1814, husband of Irish-born Sarah Curran from Newmarket in County Cork.

Collection of pictures, posters, clothing and other artifacts detailing the 1000 year history of Biarritz. It is in the converted Anglican Church ans features only part of the material assembled from donations of the major families of Biarritz since 1980 when it was founded. Some English information provided. Could benefit from more displays and additional space. Parking is a challenge.

Pretty cool little museum in an old church. Worth a visit

Small and not well organized museum. Although the building that used to be an Anglican church is beautiful.
