In the center of the village of Samadet, this former royal factory has been taken over by Muriel who makes hand-painted porcelain dishes with motifs inspired by the 18th century. In the store, which is open to the public, you can also find pieces from Moustiers.

Its construction was completed in 1693, on the remains of the Maison des kings de Navarra, built in 1680. The imposing building of 590 m 2 on the ground surrounds a rectangular courtyard of 245 m 2. Its real role was the storage of arms, ammunition and food from Navarrenx, but also from Béarn. In the courtyard, 30 000 bullets or grenades were stored, 60 drill or mortars, and 150 000 bullets. Restored by the municipality, it is today, the cultural and tourist centre of the city.

Role of this structure: setting up stories and transforming them by artists. The stories are still coming from the fishermen's environment, from rescuers at sea, from foresters… A programme of education and artistic education is developed with the introduction of workshops for young people and all lovers of storytelling…
