What better than a fair to observe, compare, debate and bargain? This event was initiated by the folk group of the Thiaulins de Lignières, the historic cradle of the Black Black Donkey of Berry, to save this mules breed. Traditionally, the Donkey Grand Black du Berry is the animal par excellence par excellence. It was used for ploughing, the work of the vine, the coupling of small carriages, and firing the barges on the Berry Canal. In 1985, when this fair began, it's only 45 Great Black Blacks that were presented. But very quickly, this gathering took place and in 1989, we could count 140 donkeys. Today, more than 200 donkeys are presented by their owner, amateur or professional from all over France, but also from neighbouring countries. You can also discover all the other races of donkeys and mules. The program, race competition and coupling competition. Many stalls related to the mules activity are located on the Place-de-Foire square and on the adjacent streets. A snack is also at your disposal to refresh yourself, as in general, at Pentecost, it is rather hot! A friendly atmosphere, where the meetings go well. In any case, the Thiaulins have been successful since 1994, the Âne Grand Black du Berry is an officially recognized race and is even the second mules race in France.
