The old rotonde rotonde rotonde, dating back to 1905, houses the largest French museum dedicated to agriculture. On 3 000 square metres, there is a large collection of agricultural machinery and tools from 1800 to 1950 (tractors, ploughs, combine, steam «). Numerous etchings, photographs, posters, documentations and sculptures evoke the great moments of transformation or evolution of rural life. The gallery of Inventors allows to meet with men of science and others who have moved agriculture and its history from antiquity to present. A multimedia space is dedicated to information and communication technologies. For children between the ages of 6 and 12, games and quizzes are available for a fun discovery of the museum. Finally, the museum's boutique offers publications for all ages (scholarly writings to children's books), dvds and toys (reproductions of agricultural machinery, models). Possibility of order by correspondence.
