The museum invites the public to explore its collections during a special weekend. Access is free, with no reservation needed. Flash tours will be available, and on Sunday, a virtual tour of the lake's depths will allow visitors to discover its archaeological treasures using virtual reality headsets or a giant screen, hosted by Jonathan Moquel (Pixalt).
Along the lake shores, five explanatory totems will be on display throughout the weekend. They will cover biodiversity, local fauna and flora, and archaeology, offering a new perspective on the lake. These totems were designed in collaboration with the CRESS (Sanguinet Scientific Research and Study Center).
At l'Amassà, on Saturday, November 21, the Lab'Archéomobile will allow visitors to step into the shoes of an archaeologist to trace the history of an archaeological site through ceramic study. A family workshop is also scheduled from 10:00 AM to 12:30 PM and from 2:00 PM to 5:00 PM in the multi-purpose hall.
The day continues at 6:00 PM with the screening of the documentary "The Sunken City" in the auditorium, a poetic evocation of the lake and testimonies from those who study it daily. At 7:00 PM, a Q&A session titled "Voices of the Divers: 50 Years of Archaeological Research in Lake Sanguinet" will feature André Tartas and Bernard Dubos from CRESS, accompanied by Anaïs Diméglio from DRASSM, moderated by Margaux Gilet-Caubère from the Lake Museum. Prepare your questions!
At the Ludo-mediatheque, throughout the week from November 17 to 21, a selection of new books on archaeology, history, and heritage will be available. A participatory puzzle about an ancient submerged city and the video game "Spelunky 2" will also be accessible.
