  • 12 Hectares, 5 typical buildings, 12 rooms to visit and thousands of objects from the era of the daily life of Bresse farmers, their know-how, tools, farm machinery, traditional costumes...

    The history of this community museum is incredible: the five traditional buildings were saved from destruction, completely dismantled and rebuilt identically on a new site. Come and discover a 15th-century farmhouse, a 17th-century farmhouse, a former tile factory...
    Precious testimonies of rural life...
