The visit

During your visit, you’ll have the opportunity to admire treasures such as the statue of “Saint John the Evangelist” or “The Chariot of Love”, a fragment of mural painting. Previously hidden, they were discovered during the building’s renovation. Here you can discover a unique heritage and its associated techniques:

Coinage, metal refining, goldsmithing, hallmarking, diamond dies…

Manuscripts and printed works, including “flagship works”: Mémoires de Trévoux and Dictionnaire de Trévoux.

A spinning wheel, a magnificent spinning machine, completes these collections.
