Maison Rouge - Museum of the Cévennes Valleys
Presentation
Located in Saint-Jean-du-Gard, Maison Rouge - Cévennes Valley Museum is the museum of the Cévennes identity.
All the Cevennes in a museum.
Why is the chestnut tree called the breadfruit tree, the mulberry tree, the golden tree? An incredible collection of 10,000 exhibits give an understanding of the life, know-how and history of the Cevennes.
Man and the objects he has made are at the center of the discourse.
As a heritage, the memory of the spinning mill, the oldest to have innovated and the last one in activity in France, is sublimated by a deliberately contemporary renovation and extension.
All summer long, the museum offers shows on Thursdays at 6 pm, a treasure hunt on Fridays and many visits.
Note that you can download the Maison Rouge application on the museum's website to visit independently in English, Dutch or German.
Temporary exhibitions are proposed. Information on www.maisonrouge-musee.fr

Parking access : 35, grand'rue
