Children will be able to touch, test and put themselves in the shoes of a miller during a visit.

    For a unique experience, you will witness the live production of electricity in 110 volts thanks to a dynamo of 1908. 2 turbines are also dedicated to the production of renewable energy, clean (electricity).
