The Rouen Ceramic Museum (French – musée de la Céramique de Rouen) is a museum located in the hôtel d'Hocqueville in the French city of Rouen. It has the title Museum of France. It was established in 1864, and contains a collection of around 5000 pieces.^[1]

Since 1984, the museum has occupied the Hôtel d'Hocqueville, known as the Hôtel de Bellegarde. Dating from the 17th century,^[2] it is built on the ruins of the castle of Rouen, itself built on the ruins of the Gallo-Roman amphitheater of Rotomagus. This mansion, with part of its outbuildings, was listed as a historic monument on April 8, 1935; it was then classified as a historic monument on July 28, 1937 for the facades and roofs of the hotel.^[3]

Albizias have been planted in the museum garden.

A bust of the god Pan (1913) comes from the Jardin des Plantes in Rouen.
