http://museepaysderetz.com/In the audio-visuel room, a short document will invite you to a visit in the «Pays de Retz».
The soil in our country will be showed to you with maps and lots of geological samples.
Three glass cabinets have been provided with archeological objects from the different periods of prehistory in our country.
Coifs and local costumes are presented in six glass cabinets, describing a more recent past. There, you will find all the domestic objects which were used by our ancestors.
After a temporary exposition, you will be presented the different activities which were provided by the sea: salt and salt-marshes, fishing and some old fishing-boats as well as the different shell-fishes still living on the sea shore.
Then you will see the old agricultural tools that the farmers of old times used.
A presentation of an older open-air craft will show you that brick working was one of our most important local industries.
When you have visited an old residence of the country, you will be presented the old craftmen: blacksmith, carpenter, shoemaker, sabotmaker, spinner, innekeeper, cooper and the bakehouse.
We hope that your visit will help you to appreciate our «Pays de Retz».
