Maison de la Paille et du Grain
In Escorailles, in a barn with an original thatched roof, you will discover the way cereals were cultivated yesteryear and how straw and grain were used (old photos, traditional tools). Thanks to a video, you will appreciate the story of this village 1000 years ago: how the castle motte was besieged by Pépin Le Bref (the best preserved example in France), the ruins of this castle and the chapel dating from the 11th century (nowadays the village church) and the communal oven. A commentary: “From the grain to the bread”. Documents translated into English.
