An ecomuseum housed in a former hangar featuring an exhibition on the history of marble, its formation, and extraction...
The Marbre et Terroir eco-museum was born of the desire of the people of Caunes to showcase the village's renowned heritage. Housed in a former industrial shed, the museum's collections focus on Caunes marble, viticulture, and period tools. The museum exhibits numerous works and samples, as well as evoking the history of marble, from its formation to its extraction, through to its modification for material or artistic use.

Magnifique expo sur l'histoire du marbre de Caunes.

Billet jumelé avec celui de l'abbaye. Très chouette musée avec une mine d'informations. Le début est un peu trop spécialisé et technique pour les néophytes (on se perd dans les époques et les termes géologiques !), mais la suite rattrape tout à fait : descriptif des méthodes d'extraction, historique des carrières dans la région et leur impact social et commercial, présentation d'innovations techniques et enfin exposition d'objets (j'ai adoré voir les ensembles de cuisine et de toilettes du 19eme)... On est resté beaucoup plus longtemps qu'on ne pensait, c'est bon signe !
