Museum retracing the journey of the Johnnies, Breton merchants who crossed the Channel to sell their onions in England.
The House of the Johnnies retraces the journey of Breton merchants who crossed the Channel to sell their onions in England. This adventure, which began in the 19th century, is still relevant today because the Roscoff onion is still very much in demand, both for its taste and its medicinal virtues. Relive this story through objects, photos, audio and video testimonials. You will discover all the richness of this industry that has made the reputation of Roscoff.

Der Eintritt für Erwachsene beträgt 5€. An der Kasse liegen Flyer auch in deutscher Sprache aus. Das Thema Zwiebeln und der Handel damit wird ausführlich behandelt und an vielen Stellen durch Fotos und auch einen kleinen Film veranschaulicht.

This is a very interesting museum all about the history of the Roscoff Onion and the Johnny l'ognions of France.
English information is available.
Don't expect to be here long! We were here for just under an hour.
There are toilets but no cafe (not needed as there are so many eateries in Roscoff).
Adults entry fee €5, students entry fee €3 and children aged 10 and under are free (Aug 2023).
I liked it because I'm interested in the history of places we visit, but just don't expect to fill your day here!

One minor issue: no soap in the toilets and after asking still no soap!
