The heritage comes to life at Vieux Moulins de la Tine! Dive into the heart of the gestures of yesteryear with unique demonstrations every weekend in July and August from Sunday, July 13.

A living, authentic and accessible moment for all – young and old, curious and passionate.
Sunday, August 3rd program:

– The spinner will explain how wool becomes yarn: fiber preparation, the use of the spinning wheel, and spinning techniques… a manual craft that requires precision and patience.
– The carpenters will show you the restoration of a foot-powered wood lathe.: selecting the wood, cutting, precisely assembling the parts… a meticulous job that combines technique and traditional craftsmanship.
