A place of memory of the textile activity of the Haut-Pilat. A reconstituted know-how: flat and workshop of the passementier as they existed in the last century, JACQUARD ribbon loom in function and video presenting the life of the passementier.
The Passementerie Museum was opened for the 1973 summer season. The "Fabrique", a large room designed to house the imposing JACQUARD ribbon looms, is lit by large bay windows.
Here you will find:
- on the ground floor, the passementier's flat and its period furniture from the middle of the 19th century.
- a second room, containing numerous collections of ribbons woven in the village since 1660, as well as a video corner to enjoy the exclusive film UNE VIE DE PASSEMENTIER.
- On the first floor, a JACQUARD ribbon loom made of walnut wood, also dating from the middle of the 19th century, is in operation on every visit.
The commentary is given by experienced passementiers who have many years of experience.
You will leave our museum with the impression of having experienced a real lesson in local history.
Weekdays by appointment for groups and schools
