RED HOUSE - MUSEUM OF THE CÉVENNES VALLEYS
Go there and contact
A museum where you can discover the art and techniques of spinning and weaving, crafts that have provided a livelihood for many local people
An impressive collection of 10,000 exhibits offers an instructive insight into the life, know-how and history of the Cévennes. Man and the objects he has created occupy a central place in the museum's discourse and scenography. The memory of the spinning mill, the oldest to introduce innovations and the last in operation in France, is treated as a precious heritage, magnified by a deliberately contemporary renovation and extension.

Très joli cadre, le musée est implanté dans une ancienne grande manufacture de soie.
Compter une heure et demi (à 2h si vous profitez également de l'expo temporaire) pour la visite.
Personnel accueillant et petite boutique sympathique avec des produits de la région.
Idéal pour s'immerger complètement dans les Cévennes et leur cultur.
Un panorama très complet de la région. Historique, économique, socio culturel.
L'élevage du verre a soie est très intéressant
