(Local Name: Musée d'Art Chrétien) In Arles, the Musée d'Art Chrétien lies a short distance northwest of the Musée Lapidaire on Rue Balze. Housed in the chapel of the former Jesuit college which was built in 1652, it possesses one of the most important collections of Early Christian sarcophagi from the fourth century; many of them come from the Necropolis of the Alyscamps and from the Early Christian burial place of St Genest in the present-day suburb of Trinquetaille. The sarcophagi are decorated with reliefs showing scenes from the Old and New Testaments.
The "Cryptoporticus", a partly subterranean arcade of the ancient Forum, can be reached from the museum.
