ARCHITECTURAL AND HERITAGE INTERPRETATION CENTRE
Go there and contact
Located in the heart of the historic capital of Haut-Béarn, at the confluence of the gaves of Aspe and Ossau, this charming site first hosted craft and then industrial activities, including the Bedat sandal factory. From now on, the Centre d'Interprétation de l'Architecture et du Patrimoine occupies the two major buildings of the site, the factory itself, enlarged in the 1920s, as well as the large employer's residence attached to it. This cultural site has a permanent exhibition of 200 m², spread over the two levels of the factory. It presents the territory of the Béarn Pyrenees in all its dimensions (heritage, economy...). With a space designed to host temporary exhibitions and a 90-seat auditorium, the Villa du Pays d'art et d'histoire offers a year-round programme of events to the delight of residents of Béarn and visitors from all over the world. A soothing and essential place. Entering it is a guarantee of escape, all you have to do is go!
