About

An archivist presents and comments on the medieval manuscript 'Le Petit Thalamus' — a key historical source tracing Montpellier's history from 1204 to 1604 — at the Archives de Montpellier.

The Archives de Montpellier preserve the manuscript of the Petit Thalamus, an essential source for understanding the city's history from the founding of its consulate in 1204 through to 1604.

An archivist will page through this exceptional document, offering commentary and context to help visitors appreciate its historical significance. The event is open to the general public.

This presentation follows a lecture on the book 'La Chronique française of the Petit Thalamus in Montpellier', held earlier the same day at the Émile-Zola media library at 16:00 in the Cinema & Meetings room.
