La vallée des Merveilles, située dans le Parc national du Mercantour, à 80 kilomètres de Nice (Alpes-Maritimes), est l'un des plus importants sites de gravures rupestres d'Europe. Le Département des Alpes-Maritimes, dans le cadre de sa politique culturelle, décide de créer le musée des Merveilles afin de contribuer à la protection de ce patrimoine exceptionnel. Le projet remonte à 1987. Sur proposition du sénateur-maire de la commune, Maître José Balarello, le Conseil général, maître d'ouvrage, décide en 1989 l'acquisition d'un bâtiment destiné à l'accueil des collections. Achevé en 1993, le musée nécessite trois ans de préparation avant d'ouvrir ses portes au public le 12 juillet 1996. Réceptacle du travail de recherche accompli depuis un siècle par les savants et surtout depuis 30 ans par les équipes pluridisciplinaires du professeur Henry de Lumley, le musée conserve et met en valeur le patrimoine archéologique et ethnologique du mont Bego et de sa région. Le musée des Merveilles accueille un vaste public, grands et petits, profanes, amateurs et spécialistes.
