You may have a look at http://www.cmsgarden.org which is a cooperation of 
various open source content management systems.

Someone mentioned WordPress, it is not really a content management system but a 
blog system. There is a tendency that each system claims to be suitable (and 
capable) for everything. It is as true as the claim a formula 1 car is suitable 
for your weekend family shopping.

Unless you have a good IT support you may avoid php based systems for security 
reasons. Some systems (e.g. Drupal) are re-programming the whole bunch a comply 
to a security aware architecture but most use a programming architecture of the 
last century. 

I suppose the intended site will we quite small (e.g. less than about 100 
pages), doesn’t need a history, is just modestly updated and managed by quite a 
few authors. You may choose djangoCMS (easier) or phone (more functions) (both 
Python). For a really big site with a lot of daily updates and a bunch of 
authors you may choose one of the  Enterprise ready systems (OpenCMS or 
ScientificCMS).
