Located in a fortified medieval tower, the Ecomuseum of the Brocéliande area reveals the rich historical and natural heritage of the region.
Brocéliande is more than just a legendary forest, well loved by storytellers, more than Merlin and King Arthur. Steeped in medieval history, the region is also home to some beautiful architectural curiosities and unique ecosystems, and the Ecomuseum of the 'Pays de Brocéliande' is committed to conserving and making them accessible to the general public. Each floor of the 14th century Papegaut tower houses a permanent exhibition devoted to home-made toys, traditional costumes (1840-1940), or the legend of the Cane de Montfort…Recently, two rooms have been refurbished to trace the saga of the noble Gaël-Montfort family and to recreate daily life in the Middle Ages. Don’t miss the view from the ‘chemin de ronde’ walkway up on the ramparts, its unforgettable.
