Museum retracing the history of ochre, earthenware and candied fruit located in the former factory of candied fruit Marliagues.

The museum is housed in the former Marliagues candied fruit factory, which flourished in the 19th century. The museum tells the story of ochre, earthenware and candied fruit. The collections of fine Apt earthenware are magnificent. A reconstructed potter's workshop demonstrates the invaluable skills of the craftsmen. More pragmatically, part of the museum is dedicated to architectural pottery, featuring bricks and, above all, the famous thigh-molded tiles.

Visiter avec un guide, c’est un réel avantage (beaucoup de lecture sur les panneaux) et si de plus vous avez l’occasion d’aller sur le terrain (pour visiter une mine d’ocre ou voir travailler un faïencier) c’est encore mieux ! Les fruits confits d’Apt remontent à plusieurs siècles et on ne se doute pas du nombre de machines différentes qu’il fallait utiliser (elles sont toutes exposées) pour les confire. La faïence fine vous étonnera. Idéal pour les scolaires.
Petite ville mais « grand » musée.
