The Musée des Antiquités is a museum in the French city of Rouen, housing archaeological finds from the department of Seine-Maritime. It has the title of Museum of France. It was set up in 1831 to house the finds excavated at Lillebonne at the instigation of prefect Henri Dupont-Delporte. Its first director was Achille Deville and one of its first curators was Jean Benoît Désiré Cochet. It suffered a fire on 21 April 1894.
