Museum complex of 18 buildings, retracing the life of the village at the beginning of the century and the community life of the Shakers.
This museum complex is a kind of open-air museum, where history comes alive. A total of 18 buildings retrace the life of this small village at the beginning of the century and the community life of the Shakers, Protestants who, persecuted on the Old Continent, decided to join New England in the 18th century. They then lead an austere life, imposing celibacy and forbidding all individual property. Today, we can also discover the craftsmanship of these Shakers, known for their great simplicity and solidity.
