Heart Pendant

In Victorian times, these locket pendants were intended to hold the intimate memory of a loved one: a miniature portrait, a lock of hair, a relic of love…

The anchor and lion motifs engraved on it are traditionally associated with symbols of strength, loyalty, or attachment.

Like this small heart that held some essential element, the Museum protects the remains that tell us where we come from, preserving our collective memory. Researchers, guides, Members, enthusiasts, and those simply curious about archaeology and history—all are united by this same mission.

Your generosity brings the Museum to life — Thank you!
