The best museums West And North Coast

It is important to know that the commune of Voh was a Mecca for coffee production at the beginning of the 20th century! 500 ha were devoted to it producing 300 tons per year. Since 2011, the old Destoop house has been renovated as an eco-museum to host temporary exhibitions on the pioneer families in this industry, the varieties of Caledonian coffee (robusta, arabica and Leroy) or on the coffee route... Animation days are regularly organized and there is a cafeteria on site. Picking, roasting, planting, tasting workshops...

The museum was established in the old central store of the city, built by the bagnards in 1870 and then converted into cheese dairies. The main building focuses on Bourail's history, rich in everyday objects, anecdotes and explanations for different communities. On the ground floor, an easy Caledonian interior was reconstituted, as well as workshops. In the courtyard you will find a bread oven, a bakery and a kanak box. It is a lively and well maintained attraction by a staff available. Shop and Wi-Fi on site. Guided tours of the New Zealand site or cemetery are also possible, as are traditional weaving workshops on Tuesday morning from 9 am to 12 pm.
