The living past<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

A former factory is reborn as a museum to tell the story of centuries of textiles and horned craftsmanship.<\/em><\/h1>\n\n\n\n

Housed in Lavelanet’s former textile mill – the factory inherited from the XIX\u1d49 century – the Mus\u00e9e du Textile et du Peigne en Corne takes you on a journey from medieval times to contemporary techniques. Between period machines, hand looms, carding, spinning, dyeing and weaving, every space exudes authenticity. You’ll also discover the traditional manufacture of horn combs, patiently fashioned according to ancient know-how. It’s a place steeped in history, where the industrial heritage of Ari\u00e8ge is told through gestures, materials and objects. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
