Musée de l'École Rurale d'Auvergne

To better immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the school era of the 1930s, and after a visit to the locker room where young and old don the black or gray blouse and high or low galoshes, everyone enters the class, an authentic class from the 30s. A commentary adapted to the age of the audience on the history of Jules Ferry's school precedes the page of writing in purple ink... The facilitator plays her role as teacher from the time of the “Hussars of the Republic” and very quickly visitors get involved in the game in this classroom which smells of chalk, real wood and old paper. This visit ends with a page of writing in pen and purple ink. In the exhibition room adjoining the classroom, you will discover riches. Objects that speak to you: from the celluloid doll to the slate pencils, including various collections of blotters, notebook covers, class photos, all these objects bear witness to the progress made since that time.
The association offers workshops to schools so that children can discover objects and games from yesteryear.

For visitors who have visited the Messeix mine museum, the group rate is applied.
