Two adjoining winegrowers' houses, dating from 1615 and 1618, tell the story of the region's history and development, from the Neolithic period to the golden age of the hotel industry. The collections focus on the themes of the land (rural life, carpentry, handicrafts, numismatics, weights and measures, etc.) and tourism (architecture, images, hotels, literature, transportation, illustrious guests, etc.). A room dedicated to the fingers of fairies unveils a collection of more than 2'100 thimbles, a loom of the 19th century accompanied by objects related to weaving. Spindle laces, needle laces, crochet laces, frivolities or nets, these works, which have gradually fallen into oblivion, are brought out of the shadows for the pleasure of the eye.
