House of the mountain pastures

Come to discover the departmental house of the mountain pastures. You will learn all about pastoralism of yesterday and today and about the life of a high mountain village with a harsh nature and long winters.

The "Maison Départementale des Alpages" is essentially focused on the pastoralism of yesterday and today and on the life of a high mountain village with a harsh nature and long winters.

Numerous objects, photos, slideshows, recorded stories, everything is there to recall the life of yesteryear without forgetting that the village is still alive today. You will see the sheep, the shepherds; you will even hear the bells of the tarine cows and the drone of the ram. You will also have an idea of the pastoralism in Africa, because pastoralism and transhumance are widespread throughout the world.
