A small plant with thousand virtues, it has been recognized for its qualities since antiquity: Hippocrates or Pliny recommended it already! If he once picked up along sources and streams, we learned in the th century to cultivate him… always feet in the water. Since 1897, the date of its creation by Paul Barberot, the Cressicole operation of Villa Paul has succeeded five generations. The cresson of Méréville has since acquired a world renown. The Barberot family welcomes groups, schools and various leisure agencies for a commented tour of the area. Individuals are also welcome. In addition to the visit of the cressonnières, you can taste and buy from the Cresson, of course, as well as the Cressonnien, a red or white aperitif based on Hebrew, or the velvety and muslin. To find out also on site: the House of Cresson. It is a small museum that tells you everything about the local star, its history, its culture, the tools used… It is recommended for individuals to prevent their arrival, especially on Saturdays to not come when a group visits.
