Decidedly, the small town of Plouigneau is very lucky! In addition to its authentic charm, it has a "floral farm" which goes against current practices, and an exciting ecomuseum, "Le Village Breton" ...
The ecomuseums, the men, their lives, their land
There are about 300 ecomuseums in the world, including 200 in Europe. Their work of research, presentation, conservation, and development of goods, activities, professions, and know-how, allows us to discover and understand the tangible and intangible heritage of a region or a population, and to learn from it.
Coming from a specific region, each one is rich in its own particularities, unique and unusual.
The "Grand Ouest Insolite", therefore, presents them to you.
The Breton Village
The old farmhouse presents, in its different spaces and settings, the technical developments and upheavals in the lives of the workers and families of the Trégor over the last century.
The Ecomuseum allows you to discover how much techniques have evolved and changed the lives of families and workers and how great was the ingenuity and imagination of our ancestors.
It is quite simply our history of yesterday and today that you are offered to understand, perhaps to find keys for tomorrow. And to keep track of our ancestors!
From the fields to the stalls, from school to home, objects are gathered, places recreated, to make you live or relive the atmosphere of yesteryear. 100 years of rural life on 8000 m2.
In the summer, you can take part in a workshop every Wednesday of the month. Beekeeping Workshop, Butter Workshop, Pancake Workshop, Basketry Workshop, you can't refuse!
To make you want to go and see for yourself, here are two approaches on video. A presentation with this video, from 2018. Here is also a video report from France 3 Iroise, made in 2015... You also have a video at the bottom of the article, from 2016... things haven't changed much since then!
And, since you're here, have a look at the article about the other ecomuseums in Finistère!
