Heritage comes to life at the Vieux Moulins de la Tine!

Immerse yourself in the skills of yesteryear with unique demonstrations every weekend in July and August. These events offer you a rare opportunity to see, feel and hear the trades that were the heartbeat of our valleys. A lively, authentic experience accessible to all – young and old, curious and passionate.

Program for July 25 and 26:
> The weaver will introduce you to the art of weaving the old-fashioned way: the regular sound of the loom, the threads taking shape… a plunge into a delicate and precise knowledge.
> The hood maker will perpetuate a unique local craft by making a traditional hood, once indispensable for transporting crops and wood.

Workshops: Make your own wooden screw from 11am to 12pm (min. age 8)
> Make your own key ring from 14h to 15h
