In the heart of the village...
"Putting the church in the middle of the village" is a common expression, and in La Borne, it is fully justified since this chapel is indeed in the heart of the village, presenting the very heart of this pottery village, namely a very beautiful collection of traditional pottery, testimonies of the daily life of their time.
The Talbot dynasty
In this Pottery Museum, created in 1986, you will also admire, under the vaults of the chapel, a collection of pictorial pottery of the famous Talbot dynasty.
The members of this family were undoubtedly the first to give an artistic dimension to a production that was simply utilitarian at first. Elegance and technical perfection are found in their often anthropomorphic works.
