Discover the natural, heritage and forest environment of Mervent through an exceptional collection of tools from yesteryear and reconstructions of scenes from the woodworking trades.

Three main themes are represented: flora and fauna, the history of Mervent and the tools of the woodworking trades. Scenes of naturalised animals, as well as models of heritage sites, are on display in the museum, and can be visited on your own or with a guide.
